start ridiculously small and finish what you start.

perhaps start with the goal of

"I want my green square to accelerate and slow down "
or
"I want my green square to jump over the blue squares"

that kind of thing. You will learn all sorts of wonderful lessons by finishing tiny demos that will prepare you for larger projects. Even the simplest 'game' is composed of many discrete parts working together.
