How do you think, when I will be able to create my first platformer? (bad English probably)

Question

I am very enthusiastic about programming and I enjoy learning it. And I really want to create my own games to make all the imaginary stories and heroes from my head come true. But, unfortunately, I am 14 years old, always doing lots of homework so I rarely have more than 1-2 hours of freetime. And I study 6 days a week. I also live in Russia, where programming is not too developed, so I can't go on afterschool activities in programming school and, finally, I started self-learning.

Answer 1

hi Touka,
you're better than me! although i'm 18 years old but don't think programming in IRAN is better that RUSSIA, ha? but you have good idea. don't lose your creativity bro. I have nearly same this thoughts and start learning to make them real but the more i learn, the less i get ideas and imagination. thus creativity is a important weapon for any developer in any country.
for creating game you could use UNITY engine that has visual editor means less code complex and a language to program like C# or java and then just a elementary tutorials for animating characters for example with MAYA. then you could work either in your local country or from freelacer websites with foreigners or you could just sell or publish them in the market's.

hope it helps,
sincerely,
Amirreza

Answer 2

каждый случай уникальный в определенной мере.

но если ты будешь двигаться без сильных отклонений, то возможно через полгода у тебя будут навыки и знания чтобы создать платформер.

знания придется получать из разных источников, т.к. сололерн предоставляет только базовый минимум, который не достаточен для создания средних и крупных проектов.

поэтому ищи информацию в интернете, книгах, видео-туториалах и т.д.

в любом случае всё зависит в первую очередь от тебя.
удачи в учебном процессе!
