  • I can recommend Python, Lua or JavaScript. All are interpreted languages so you don't have to worry about setting up a build step, and the languages are solid and should be possible to learn without prior experience.

    If you want to make games, don't worry about learning a specific programming language at first. You can transfer your skills pretty well when it comes to programming.

    And if you are stuck you could try visual languages like MakeCode or Scratch.

  • I can recommend osu!lazer if you like rythm games, be careful not to get addicted though :P

  • I know that a lot of other comments recommend Godot, but I would seriously consider not starting out with a game engine when learning to code. It's another huge time sink and source of frustration and can even teach bad coding practices.

    Start learning programming with a small and easy language like Python, Lua or JavaScript. Python would be an obvious pick if you plan to use Godot, the syntax is very similar.

    After learning the basic programming concepts, start learning Godot. Trust me, this will be much easier in the long run.

  • I remember this popping up in the pandemic, I read some really wholesome messages on there.

  • Das ist die beste Darstellung des derzeitigen Standes die ich bis jetzt gesehen habe. Der Inhalt ist leider nicht sehr überraschend. Und natürlich sind willkürliche Ziele wie 1.5C, 2045, oder schwammige Begriffe wie klimaneutral oft nicht hilfreich und erlauben das Lösen von Problemen weiter hinauszuschieben.

    • osu!lazer: One of the best open source (rythm) games imo
    • Pioneer: A cozy space sim
    • JStris Just a multiplayer Tetris website
    • Not "open source" per-se, but games on Tic80 have the code available>

  • For focused work: Shenzhen IO Exapunks Opus Magnum Into the Breach Firewatch IXION

  • I don't think you can use this to predict the future, but here is an interesting graph showing that the current bank failures follow a similar pattern to 2008: https://www.fdic.gov/bank/historical/bank/index.html

    But it's only a matter of time imo. I have a feeling money won't be playing an as large role as you would imagine. Prices can rise, but if things are just not available anymore no amount of money can help you.
