  This was a while back, but my cousin learned to program using Codecademy. These were self-paced courses using web interfaces, which was nice because they didn't have to install anything, they just used a web browser.

  It looks like codecademy has a game development path: https://www.codecademy.com/catalog/subject/game-development

  Their python chatbot course looks fun too: https://www.codecademy.com/learn/paths/build-chatbots-with-python

  You can’t remain unlinked to your real identity as seen by the government because you need to provide your id when buying a new SIM

  This varies by country. In the US you can buy a prepaid mobile phone with cash and supply it with prepaid cards, all without showing ID:

  (but obviously they can figure out who you are by tracking your signal and seeing where you spend your time.)
