so i feel like making money and wanting to have fun/do something with my life are interfering with eachother
Truer word has never been said.
so what can be done? at the moment?
Do you truly have no idea or you already know all the usual things people would do and you are just not interested in any of them? What are the things you thought you could do but don't want to do?
I kinda have no idea but i tend to want to do things out of my range or hard nerdy things and ive very limited with tech, like i want to make a video game but i dont know how to code or what engine/framework to use, ive also wanted to make a movie but im limited on what i have and i feel like i suck at most stuff and i feel lost at the moment.
Learn to knit/crochet and sell items online or at consignment shops.
Play drums!
You can work toward both ends by trying to engage in something that cultivates marketable skills.
Khan Academy style sites are a population recommendation, but not your only option. Once upon a time, I learned quite a bit of coding working with robocode and had a blast doing it.
You could also get a VPS and see what you could get up and running on it. Maybe your own Lemmy instance! (admittedly that option is not free)
Yes, robocode is fun. I got thrown in the deepend with that and a coding assignment.
thank you but also, do you also suggest any coding laugueges or game engines preferblay game engine for a beginner witha low end pc that i can look up? by chance
Try to figure out what you want to build. That will make a big difference towards what you learn. I'm partial to C# for gamedev, but there is so much out there. If you really have no idea, Python is a good multi-purpose language that can get you used to programming.
