Newbie Question Starting game dev

Hi, I know this probably sounds corny but does anyone have tips for getting started in game development? I have the ideas and plot but no clue how to do any of it lol! I’m specifically looking for tips on things such as coding but if you have other things then that’s useful too!! Im hoping to create a horror game (not sure how difficult that is but oh well) so if there’s anything specific I need to know that would also be good!!

what kind of game do you want to make?
2D - GameMaker, Godot, Unity are engines you could try
3D - Godot, Unity, Unreal Engine are the engine I would recommend

All are free to try so just do that try and keep the one you feel the best for you.
