Hey All,

so i've made one game, of which i made $1 from here on itch so i could say i have made money from game dev and therefore a professional game developer but no, not really, i suck. 

The game was made in a drag n drop game engine and im looking at moving across to either godot or unity. fpr some reason i think i like godot but unsure why.

My goal is to hopefully make some games as a hobby on the side of working,  make some sweet sweet money and then Shower my Girlfriend with the things she has always wanted that i cant afford to buy and she is missing out on by choosing me instead of someone who can provide those things. 

I do enjoy art and programming etc so its not just about the money, its fun also however what im looking for is some advice.

I tend to find i over scope and lose interest but this time i really want to complete a project.

What would people recommend as a first genre if theres an easier one or not?

i cant really do ark so i was either gonna draw and scan pictures in and try to do a paper style art OR try to learn some pixel art

When it comes to programming i used to dabble back in the day, i can read some programming but pretty nob there also.

Any advise on what i should start with would be great

is there a better engine for beginner between godot or unity?

Your first game is good! For getting better I would say do studies the same way a painter would study the classics. Recreate old arcade games like Pacman and Space Invaders. Its a small project that wont take forever but also a great learning opportunity.
