I have always wanted to do my own game and in the Philippines there have been several schools that offer short courses on coding, animation, voice acting.
We had several firms that did small indie works on games and I went to several gaming conventions that showcased them.
A perennial problem that they faced was funding and talent.
If you can get yourself into a course to learn some coding, or even if you learn say C# or C++ and want to learn unreal engine, you will get the hang of it if you understand the coding when you do it. Well worth learning, or look into what other coding you might like.
Then you get the talent and can go to those indie game companies, show some work you have done yourself and maybe get a job. :)
