      Python with PyGame can be quite a good start. And if you’re just trying to build something for fun maybe use free assets from the internet.

        Taught myself python at 50 years of age. My God, being able to code is like a superpower. I started out doing some things to make my job easier, later developed an interest in web scraping and data analysis, now I am tinkering with machine learning. I regret listening to people who told me that a strong background in math is required for coding.
