Dumb question from one who has never written a game before… is there a TODO list equivalent for 2D Games … something like pong?

Haha, yesterday I did some research around this topic. I haven't found such list but I came up with my own: pong, space invaders, flappy bird, frogger, snake, asteroids (these are from https://thecodingtrain.com/tracks/games), also: centipede, somthing like early zelda, roguelike (https://www.gridsagegames.com/blog/2018/10/how-to-make-a-roguelike/), pacman, boulder dash, bomberman, etc...

There is a community around Pico-8 and TIC-80 (supports Fennel) fantasy consoles with plenty of simple games you can learn from and try to reimplement them.
Ha - thanks for sharing. I think it's true to say that the secret of a good game is all in the timing:stopwatch:
Oh and I’m not interested in writing web or mobile games, just local PC games.
