7yo wants to get started in game development

Scratch LOVE 2D
  1. Scratch is the programming language & online community where young people create stories, games, & animations.
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    I would suggest using Scratch as not only is it made for kids but it's 100% free and easy to use. I would advise that you try it out for yourself and then decide as if he's using unity he might be above that level.

  2. Hi there! LÖVE is an *awesome* framework you can use to make 2D games in Lua.
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    If all goes well with PICO-8, you can "upgrade" to love2d, which like PICO-8 uses Lua programming language, but allows for higher resolutions, and generally more polished outcome.
