I belive i would like to try making games but my laptop isint that powerful. Its a thinkpad from like 10 years ago, i upgraded it to a 250gb ssd, and 16gb of low voltage ddr3, i also put linux on it to screeze out as much as possible. So i need something that will run but im struggling on choosing expecially sense i want to start for free. I want to start with something dead simple and work my way up.

What would you suggest and why so?

You can try pico-8 for free just missing some features https://www.pico-8-edu.com/

Great way to have a play around and develop some simple games, and you get to get your feet wet with spriting, programming, level making, music. Lots of good tutorials available online too.
