      Creative coding is your friend. Look for p5.js . Instead to get the output in a cmdline console of your hello world, you will see it in picture you render. It is more exciting.

      Once you understand basic principles, switch to a game engine.

      Hope it helps.

        I know a few languages to do stuff by hand; I’ve just been super curious about that flow chart method of providing logic that UE5 has. I originally started with things like Klik’n’Play and always thought the “code a thing without writing any code” was neat.

        I just keep putting it off. Like how I also keep putting off learning how to play the guitar I spend $500 on. 😩

          I have adhd too ( adhd symptoms for be more precise, due to narcolepsy) So I can understand your struggle.

          Maybe you could look for taking lessons with someone for the guitar.

          Then you can’t imagine the number of games I started and gave up with unity.
