    If you have a good understanding and knowledge of C++ wouldn't you know that? What are you developing for Windows? If you are developing for Windows, what about those little messages the window receives when a key is pressed?

    You'd probably start to get a better understanding of the game-style of programming by reading a graphics-library tutorial aimed at game programmers. Check out the game board for some recommendations.
