My process:

Step 1: Take Programming in high school

Step 2: Follow at least 3 game dev tutorials teaching you a game engine or language.

Step 3: ???

Step 4: Profit?

My advice, as someone who made some very tiny small shitty games is... just start making them! Pick a game engine (i use gdevelop 5, and i just joined a team to work on a game in gamemaker), i recommend gdevelop 5 (tho its kinda too pro-ai for me), gamemaker or godot (all are free to use, gamemaker just needs a licence if you wanna sell your game). And start small, like tetris small, space shooters small. Just MAKE SOMETHING rahh!!!
