    I would look at Scratch (scratch.mit.edu) and some games that the scratchers have developed for starters snyway. Python is also a good one and there are great courses offered by Rice That go into game development.

    Hope that helps.

    If you are interested in the Python, I would recommend the  the Coursera coursee "An Introduction to Interactive Programming in Python"

    https://www.coursera.org/learn/interactive-python-1

    The course is run with video tutorials and is excellent.

    Here is the Rice link:
