As others have said, it's never too late to change careers. I was in construction for 12 years then decided that game development was something I'd really like to try. It took a couple of years to get to where it would pay the bills but 10 years later my brother and I still have a game company.
Since you have an interest in video games, I would recommend trying out Unity (or similar all-in-one engines) as a hobby to sharpen your skills programming in general. The satisfaction of your coding efforts is immediate and fun. There is plenty of free first party and third party tutorials to get you started.
Good luck in your new career!
