(warning lots of wordy words)
I feel like i stink at everythign and im limited to what my low end pc can do it use to be an office pc but it got refurbished and whatnot (still low end). I usally just go to chatgpt to learn coding and youtube too but i guess thats the lazy way of the coder and i use chatgpt to code to becasue i stink at everything. i have no talent, skills or good hobbys and im dylexic and autistic but yet for some reason and im not sure why i want to make a game. I just feel very lost with things like wanting to make a game i even made a post asking what engine or framewrok i should use most said godot, python, love2d mostly but im not sure how to start its like some werid form of writters block with the fear and guilt of failing gamedev. i tried making a endless runner in godot but i coudent get the player to stand on the platform without falling thru so i raged quite and gave up… but i still have the urge to create or be creative.

Nothing wrong with using strong tools to achieve your goals :)
Motivation is difficult. Perhaps you can find a group who already develops a game (open source projects in the internet), and start doing small tasks that help the development.
Try starting smaller. For example, pick a classic interactive fiction game (like Zork) and reproduce it without using a framework.
Focus on learning how to organize your code in ways that make sense to you, and that seem to help you avoid defects in your code.
Use ChatGPT to explain code and give you recommendations rather than having it write code for you. It’s a useful tool, but to learn to code well you need to be thinking through the logic of every line of code for yourself. Ask ChatGPT for guidance at only the smallest levels, like how to append an item to an array. Don’t try to get it to solve high level problems, think through those yourself.
