For a beginner in 'C', I think you are biting off a whole lot more than you are ready for. Start with simpler stuff for now and work your way up the knowledge ladder.

I agree with KC. Truth is, computers are dumber than dirt, and it's very hard to make them "intelligent" (act intelligently with a broad variety of situations in your game).

Having said that, don't cast your interest aside, just push it to the back burner while you learn about programming, and C.

Then look the idea over again.
