As a first timer, developing games for PC or Mobile? (lemmy.world)

I have a project stopped a couple of months ago and I want to resume it.

I started for Mobiles, but after a little more research I realized that it was more complicated than I thought, and I don't know if it can have the impact I would like it to have (which is not much either).

So I don't know if I should concentrate more on PC development until I have a little more experience and then make the leap to mobile, or should it be the other way around? start with mobile and then to PC?

What would be the most profitable path in terms of learning and, if possible, generate a modest income?

Whatever you choose, don't rule out using chatGPT to help with coding. You still have to review every line to make sure it's not gibberish if asking to generate code, but in general, it saves countless hours and will absolutely become a valued asset to your team.

GPT might have some insights for you there as well.

I've seen someone with 0 coding knowledge make a functional, albeit rudementary, first-person shooter on PC, only using chatGPT.
