Are there any tutorials on game design which you can recommend? I'm toying with the idea of getting into game development as modern games are so shit. I can programm, so that isn't an issue, but I have no idea on what actually makes a game fun or how you build a good level in something like a jump and run.

I don't remember any videos/tutorials that stuck with me, and a lot of the youtubers that "teach" gamedev today are basically grifters.
My advice is really just the standard "make what you like." You must like games. What makes them fun for you? What features/mechanics do you like?
At the end of the day, I just make shit similar to what I liked when I was younger, with a few new things thrown in.

Do you think you will ever move over to something like Godot or Unreal?
