Hello Everyone!
I have awoken in the middle of the night with an idea for a website that I would like to create.
I would like to code the website myself, but I have no idea where to begin or even what program I should use.
The coding of the website should be simple, in theory...
I remember many years ago I played a flash game titled Light Bot.
In this game, there is a robot that you program to hop around on a grid pattern and light up squares. In the later levels, one needs to create more complex and repeating functions for the animated robot to perform in order to light up the squares. This concept is very similar to what I would like to do. I would like to create a few simple 8bit animated people. Visitors to my website will input a few numbers, and based on the numbers they input, the 8bit characters will move accordingly.
Can someone please offer some guidance as to what program I should use to begin coding something like this? I would highly prefer to use a free program. I have access to both a PC and a Mac though I would prefer to work on my Mac.
Thank you very much for your guidance!
