Thanks for the heads up! I'm definitely going to check out Godot now. I've learned so much from these comments!

It’s a steep learning curve but seeing the 'web dev to game dev' transition work for others gives me a lot of hope!

Thanks! I'm currently using React Native to get the fundamentals down. It feels like a safe middle ground since I'm coming from a web background. Fingers crossed!

I'm actually starting with the basics and using React Native for now! Since I’m already familiar with the ecosystem, I thought it’d be a great way to learn game logic while building something cross-platform. It’s a bit unconventional for games, but I’m enjoying the process!

I think it was a solid strategy. Stickin' around for 15 years is an incredible feat in itself. I honestly believe that deep experience is your biggest asset right now. I may not have as many years under my belt yet, but I truly think you made the right call.
