Was wondering about programming a game
Is there a app for Android that I can try programming little games to get used to programming?? Or is it possible to programme a game on SoloLearn somehow at all?? Sorry if this seems like a dumb question (which I'll admit probably is)

You need an IDE to programme to a game as well as a game engine. Plus you can't programme games using Sololearn (unless its a very very mini-game made with HTML-CSS-JS) and the apps on android that helps you to programme games most likely is very limited.

It's possible however it would be just as easy to build a game anywhere. An IDE such as visual studio, or codeblocks could get you some or most of the tools required. However graphics are another thing, as k2 states you can create simple games using html5 , JavaScript. Really all depends on where you are starting. What do you know? What is your goal?

Well most games are written in C++, and have multiple extended libraries from various languages to create graphic animation, amongst others. Java is most likely behind any given app, or game on mobile devices. It's aa difficult language IMO to start off with. Plus I believe Java will come as you learn any c programming. There are alternatives however, we can get into that in a minute. Are you solely about game development or are you using game design as motivation to learn code?

Look into some of the codes on the Sololearn app. <-- You can learn all of them in one app. Also check out Gamesalad. It might pull you off track, for a minute it makes game creation easy, but your in for a haul if you want to make games like Eldar Scrolls or Battlefield. You need a game engine at that point, Unity makes Assassin Creed. Genesis 3 is where I believe Newgen is such as graphics, characters, world mapping, textures, animation, and even the ability to create these 'actors' on it's own term for an AI like story/combat experience.

Otherwise learn web development, and create a simple game in JavaScript which will run right inside your browser.

Learning the syntax, and structure of multiple languages can, and will confuse but it's the only way you'll recognize a source codes language. Gamesalad doesn't even require programming to make a game. you could also try Blender. You'll understand the logic though. Get back to me after your tried it out.

literally nothing just started on the python 3 tutorial app (yes I know it's going to be a VERY VERY long time before I even have an idea on how to properly program anything) and something simple like tetris eventually after I completed a few courses also is there a particular type of course that I should focus on

what you mean by game design is like 2d/3d type of animation?? if yes I'd be interested in that but mainly just wanted to code some basic game for the most part like tetris and see said blocks moving down and twist them and build them up

thanks I'll look into gamesalad and how do I know which program is meant for that because I doubt every code / program is made equal or is there no way to tell just practice on all of them??

Oh due to note, no matter what you do if your not continually restarting in the end your library of code will fill various languages and can in most aspect be reused and/or combined.

There are no === but I'd say they are all for similar or designated purpose.

how's it going?

tried out gamesalad slightly seems like a cool concept for types of games haven't tried the app for that long too see all its potential and as for blender I haven't tried that out just had stuff going on where I didn't feel like trying blender out but I forsure will try it out

Nice, hope your getting the idea. If you want a nice paint program try Gimp, or Blender. They are both great software. Blender is alot like GameSalad, although if familiar I'd use Photoshop for the graphics.
