Hey there. I trust I can help. I will come up with a few write-ups
Learn a Programming Language: Start with languages like Scratch (easy for beginners) or Python. They help you understand how games work.
Use Game Development Tools: Programs like Unity or GameMaker are great for beginners. They have lots of tutorials to help you learn.
Start Small: Make simple games like "Guess the Number" or a basic platformer to practice.
Watch Tutorials: There are tons of YouTube videos that teach game programming step-by-step.
Build and Share: Once you make a game, you can upload it to websites like itch.io to share with others and get feedback.

You rock! This advice is very helpful.

That’s an awesome question, and it’s great that you’re already thinking about making games!
I totally agree with this comment that Scratch (https://scratch.mit.edu/) is a fantastic place to start. It’s designed to make learning programming easy and fun, with plenty of templates to help you get started. Plus, there’s a huge community of young game creators like you who love making and playing games.
If you’re in 6th grade, this is the perfect time to start! You don’t need to know everything right away—just start small, experiment, and have fun making your own games.

Hey Noémie!
So, you want to create your own game? That’s awesome! The world needs more game developers—especially ones who understand the importance of fun (and maybe a few explosions). 🤯😁
Firstly know you don’t need to make Elden Ring right away. Start with something small, like:
A platformer (like Mario but with… cats? Flying pizzas?)
A top-down maze game (help a lost potato find its way home)
A simple shooter (aliens vs. angry grandmas?)
The goal is to start simple and finish a game before going big.
I am sure you got some cool ideas!
2. Learn Some Coding (the. Game Magic)
Games run on code, so you’ll need to learn some programming. Here’s where to start:
Super Beginner: Scratch (drag-and-drop coding, great for quick games)
Beginner with real code: Python (Pygame), Lua (Roblox Studio)
Serious Game Dev Mode: C# (Unity), C++ (Unreal Engine)
3. Start to Use a Game Engine
Game engines are like a toolbox full of magic spells for game-making. The best beginner-friendly ones are:
Unity (Popular, great for 2D & 3D, uses C#)
Godot (Lightweight, uses GDScript—a mix of Python & magic)
Unreal Engine (Big, powerful, used for AAA games, but more complex)
Now remember unity and Godot is a little complex but has great uses around with new developers if you are serious about game dev.🎮🕹️
Next. 4. Follow Tutorials ( learn From the Masters)
YouTube is your best friend. You can Check out:
Brackeys (Unity tutorials that don’t make you cry)
The Coding Train (Fun and wacky coding lessons)
Sebastian Lague (Mind-blowing game coding experiments)
5. Start the Experiment!
Mess with game settings. Make your character jump 100 feet. Turn gravity off. Make all enemies look like bananas. Breaking things is learning! I watch my brother do it with his games which he is working on and it is really hilarious so it will be fun.
6. Share Your Work
Upload your game on itch.io or Roblox and show the world! (Even if it’s just your cat playing it first.)
Final Tip: Don’t Give Up ever!
Coding can be frustrating—your game will break, characters will get stuck in walls, and sound effects will loop forever. That’s normal! Even pros deal with it. Just keep going, and soon, you’ll be making legendary games.
Now go forth and create something amazing (preferably with flying pizza because I am hungry) I believe in you Noémie, now it's your turn to start firing up those games! 🤗🎮💪

That's awesome! You're already thinking big! To get started on creating your own game:
Pick a Simple Game Idea: Start with something easy like a platformer, maze game, or a simple shooter. Think of something you’d love to play and create it!
Learn Basic Coding: Programs like Scratch (block coding) are beginner-friendly and great for making games. Once you're comfortable, you can try Python (Pygame) or Unity (C#).
Use Game Engines: Game engines like Godot, Unity, or Unreal Engine make creating games much easier, even for beginners. Unity is super popular for its tutorials and community support.
Follow Tutorials: YouTube has tons of free step-by-step guides for making games. Check out creators like Brackeys or The Coding Train.
Experiment: Try changing small things like character speed, colors, or backgrounds. This will help you learn and make the game your own.
Join Communities: Online forums or platforms like Scratch or Unity forums are full of people who can answer questions and give tips.
Once you're ready, you can even make YouTube videos about your game-making process to inspire others and show off your work! Keep at it—you're off to an epic start! That's awesome! You're already thinking big! To get started on creating your own game:

Hey Noémie, being a video game art designer involves a mix of artistic creativity and technical skills, and would require training in both the fields.
You would have to learn foundational Digital art and 3D tools like Adobe photoshop, Autodesk Maya, Blender, etc. These tools will give you all the basics that you would need to know to become a video game art designer.
You would also need to be trained on Game engines like Unity and Unreal Engine which are two popular game engines used to create video games.

Start with the Python language (you can go to the Online Python Interpreter from Programiz ). At first you will have to learn the basics like the print command, variables or even conditions. The beginning will be boring but don't give up. To learn the basics easily I advise you to go to the tutorials of the Graven youtube channel. He is a youtuber who speaks French and it is easy to learn the basics. Good luck
