So i want to achieve many types of hobbies. For the longest time ive wanted to make games but im honestly unsure where to start, what tools to pick up, and what to learn especially sense i want to attempt to learn for free without having to pay for anything.

Ive been told gamedev is like learning a new language in a way. I could use a point in a starting direction if possible.

I also have a dumb question but i cant really make out a different between the definitions of coding and programming, what is the difference if any?

Learn unity or unreal, that is what's most prevalent in the industry. Making games is a lot of work so start small and don't expect anything of quality for a while. There are a lot of fun little youtube tutorials, just stay away from the one with like 60 parts to them.
