Re: Where do you guys start?

I'm learning a premade game engine called 'Game Maker' so I can learn the concept of making games, and when I get better at that, then I will get into a language. What do you guys think of that idea?

Re: Where do you guys start?

Thanks for the reply :D
Do you know of any good books on C++?
Or any good books about the graphics libraries like Allegro, SDL or OpenGL?
Thanks again.

Newb in training: Speed of player

Hi forums :D I am pretty new to C++ and wondering how you set the speed of a character sprite in Allegro. I can't find any Allegro books, and I can't find any online tutorials on Allegro which cover the speed of the character that you control with the keyboard. Sorry if I don't make sense to some pe...

Where do you guys start?

I was wondering where the Pros started out in programming. The only game programmers I really know of is Falco and his team, and was wondering where he and his mates started off.
Thanks.
