I'm 12, and started at 11. Start on Roblox, once you think you know it well enough you could move to Unity 3D.

Follow me on Twitch! I'm WaffleRBLX.

Personally, I recommend starting by learning Python. It's very widely used, easy to learn and there are LOADS of free tutorials you can find online. I find that you don't have many ways to learn Lua apart from reading the documentation or watching outdated videos, which is a bore.

You can learn Python 2 at a site named Codecademy, they also teach a wide variety of other languages such as Ruby and Javascript.

Since pretty much every language is similar in many ways, all you really have to learn is what syntax each language follows. After that, you can learn the fundamentals of loads of languages.

If you want to make games in ROBLOX, the wiki is also a very good place to start! http://wiki.roblox.com/

Start when you're young, that will only be a good thing. Especially if you start with Roblox Lua. There's an active forum with people willing to help with even the dumbest questions(often), and it's like the easiest stuff ever.
