hey Denki I've been wanting to be a game developer for quit some time now even though im only 13. when people ask me what i want to be when i grow up they always laugh and ask "are you sure" i always say "yes" even though all you do is sit next to a computer all day (according to my mom) you create something out of your code that might entertain someone. personally i have always been kind of inspired by this game, it looks so basic, and comes from a small developer but yet its one of the best games I've ever played (and that is saying a lot) if you have any advice where to start coding or what programming language to try to learn please help me out! thank you so much for your time. Keep up the good work and never stop entertaining people!
If you've never programmed before I'd recommend starting at the beginning with something simple like Scratch. https://scratch.mit.edu/ Try the Tips section for some tutorials and you can study other people's projects for inspiration. It might look a bit childish but it will teach you the fundamentals of programming using drag-and-drop instructions.
Once you've got to grips with that you can move on to something like Python where you need to type the instructions in. https://www.learnpython.org/
And then you could move on to Unity. https://unity3d.com/ They've got a good tutorial section and there's a big community. Unity is what's used to make Autonauts.
