It's very difficult to live comfortably by designing games, so be aware of that, because very few games sell well enough for that to happen. Unless you're living in a third world country (and sell your games in US dollars). However, if that's what you really want to do, go for it! I think learning Blitz is a good way to start. If you can't make your own sounds, you could always buy them (like me!).
