Context: I’ve been working on Moddio (www.modd.io) for a few years and I’ve always been really proud of building something for indie devs. Our game engine is open-source, free, and is particularly designed for beginners. Most of our users come in with zero coding experience and have never touched a game engine before. My proudest moment has been hearing users tell me that they learned how to code, and even went on to try and become professional game devs, because of Moddio.

maybe give my visual scripting language a try: www.modd.io

If you just want to dive into game making and not as much programming, check out modd.io

www.modd.io is free and has multiplayer built in

Props to your son for being interested in game dev! As someone else here said, one of the hardest things about game development is that it's slow and hard to get started. That's really difficult, especially for younger people who want to see an impact right away, otherwise they get discouraged building. I'd recommend either trying to mod games, or trying something like Minecraft or Roblox. The advantage of the latter two are that he'll also find like-minded developers, around his own age, which would help with motivation. I also wanted to toot my own horn, I've been building a website (www.modd.io) which is no-code and easier to get started building games. He could use a template and have a game online in 1 minute, and players can join - this tends to help with that "magic moment" of getting started. I'm happy to help out too if you have any questions!

I also wanted to toot my own horn a bit and share a tool I've been working on - www.modd.io which is a browser based game development platform. It has drag and drop coding and multiplayer features built in, so it's easier for beginners to get started.

Hi everyone! I'm part of a small team at Moddio, a game development platform, and wanted to share a new game: Temple of Secrets
