Where do I start game design?
-
Disclaimer: I'm not some dreamer that wants to make an MMO any time within the next 10 years. My question is where would I start programming a game. I have the basics of java , c++, and python down. Whenever I look up advanced java or c++ or python I just find fancy ways to do things that I could probably already rig together. Ex: I thought of a way to store similar data like you would in an array by using string concatenation. Just tell me how to , or point me in the direction of, making a red block and being able to move it.

You'll need to get into graphics programming, like OpenGL or DirectX.

>I have the basics of java , c++, and python down. I happen to know of a Java game library called Ucigame, it can be found here: http://www.ucigame.org/index.html I used it a little, and while it isn't very powerful, it seems very approachable. I've also used a bit of Allegro in C++, but it is more complicated. >Ex: I thought of a way to store similar data like you would in an array by using string concatenation. Except that that's ridiculously resource-intensive compared to using an actual array.
