How to create a clicker game like Alter Ego?

Question

Game development

Lately, I have become interested in game programming and have been thinking for a long time what is the most interesting thing for me to work on from all the variety available.
The other day I accidentally noticed the game Alter Ego from Caramel Column Inc. Despite the fact that this is a clicker, the drawing is excellent, the game has a good plot, philosophical reflections slip through somewhere, but not the essence. I didn’t find anything on this topic other than reviews of games, so I ask for help from knowledgeable people.
Tell me, please, how to create such games, what programming languages ​​and skills are required for this? Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

Please tell me how to make games like this

Just like any other game.
Since this topic is new for you, I advise you to look in the direction of godot - this is probably the simplest (but not primitive) full-fledged game engine of all that is currently available.
Of the languages ​​available on it, I advise you to choose between GDScript and visual scripting.
Guides on how to create a clicker with it, I think you can find it yourself
. And you will have to come up with a plot and a visual somehow yourself :)
