So, after years of using the application Game Maker by Mark Overmars, I have decided to expand my knowledge in game creation by learning an actual programming language. Thus, I am amidst studying C++ and all its wonder.
I've spent over a month studying so far, but no hint of gaming stuff yet...
How long until I get to draw sprites on the screen and make things move?

But now I'm wondering what to do once I have C++ under control. Should I use the Allegro libraries? Use Opengl or Directx? *shrug*

Any suggestions out there?

To Do List:

So. I've set out a list of things to learn... and/or refine.

HTML
I just need to refine this.

CSS
And refine this too!

Wordpress
Looks very interesting.

Javascript
I can make methods with it... but with little knowledge of how to use the syntax within the methods.

PHP
Must learn... must apply.

Mysql
So I can steal and keep your information!

C#
I really need to learn this for Unity 3d when it hits Windows.

Don't say you'll never...

I was not supposed to be a programmer!
I said that I would not do it.
But, when no one else is going to make the images move...
you're the only one to boss 'x' and 'y' around.
*sigh*
