What do you need to know?

First, you will ned a very strong storyline, and decide what kind of game it'll be.
Second, you need to determine if you'll be using normal graphics or DirectX.
Third, draw the characters, scenarios.
Then everything will be the programming part, integrating both.

If you need help, we may talk. Post here.

What sort of game do you want to code?

adventure...
simulation...

I recommend and adventure type game such as myst or monkey island

i'd recommend a 3d shooter with a full 3d engine, better than quake3's, using direct3d, and 50 hours of video for the story :)
sorry.
adventure games are easiest; try a platformer or real time strategy game if ur feeling ambitious :)

Videos? Won't your engine be good enough to draw the reality in real-time? ;)

no,
I'm working on a strategy game too and I make it tile-based.
