So i have autsim and dyslexia, also depression and i just feel like a loser who cant do anyhting im trying not to think that way but its hard. i also spend most of my time indoor becasue i dont like going outdoors plus its hot out there.

Ive been wanting to make games or something like that but i litteraly cant code or understand it and ive been reserching game dev for mouths, i also feel like im very limited, like for example my pc is low end or tha tim too scared to drive and idk how to. I just want to do somet hign creative that i can show with others wihtout having to go outside. im kinda nerd but not a very smart one, so theres that.

why must life be soo hard and sad?

    You got dealt a bad hand. I can commiserate. One thing I’ve learned about that is to stop blaming myself for everything. It’s not your fault that you struggle with your issues. Try to love yourself as much as possible. Negative thoughts lead to more negative thoughts and eventually to depression.

    As for making a game, I think I have a good starting point for you. Take a look at Gameboy Studio. You can make playable games without knowing how to code.

      Another nice tool for making games is Bitsy. It’s very basic by design, to try to help folks get right into the process without getting too tangled in the weeds of programming languages and more detailed 2D and 3D graphics and the like.

      Some really interesting little games have been made with it!
