    [VS-03] Game Programming

    Im really interested in getting into game programming, but i don't really know where to start. I've done basic things such as tic-tac toe and slot machines, but id like to make 2-d (im not one to jump into the deep end) adventure / RPG games. Can anyone point me in the way of some good tutorials (things like spriting, colisions, basics of graphics et cetera). Thank you in advance.

    Re: [VS-03] Game Programming

    Have you done any real-time games (with a game-loop and such) before?

    If you havn't it would definatly be worth doing a very simple one first of all. Even if it's something like pong, breakout etc.

    This will teach you a lot about organizing your code, how a game-loop works, how to deal with input, using bitblt (or DirectX) and dealing with moving objects (collision detection, velocities etc).
