    How to start game programming?

    I am learning C++ and want to expand my horizons. What's a good site that explains what I need and tutorials that are understandable and that cover anything. Give me any links.

    First actully learn C++ don't brezze though it thinking you know it. Then after you are semi-familar with C++ try to make a basic console game.

    I can help you out if you need it. Starting with basic text games, then ascii, then actual GFX, prefferably with SDL, as allegro is a tiny bit annoying to setup.... lol

    Anyway, send me a PM or reply if you need any help!
