I want to learn game programming.

http://www.aaroncox.net/tutorials/arcade/index.html

"Making games" involve several trades. I started out learning programming through text games (when I was a computer engineering student) in C language. Eventually, you get comfortable enough to add the features of C++ (mostly *pointers) and you get down to working with the windows libraries (windows'). I could say a lot more but i've already wrote similar posts in the past. Let me find and post them here in hoping you'll get a clearer picture of what consists of "making a game".

Thank you, any help is appreciated.

Here are 2 posts I've contributed too in the past...
