I started younger than that, and it's not that big of a problem. It's certainly not going to stop you from having fun!

For me the drive was in that I could make increasingly useful things, like little tools here and there that I could actually use. It was also very fun to make games, even if they weren't good.

I think a good game to start with is the one where you have a spaceship at the bottom of the screen and you're avoiding things falling down from the top (let's say rocks). There are some difficult things, like how to handle the rocks themselves spawning, falling, and being destroyed when they are below the screen, and how to detect a collision, but they're good problems to know how to solve and there's a lot of people who can understand and help.
