- How to Start Game Development
- The "right" programming language
- The "right" engine
How great, I am a game developer!
And you can become one too in a few minutes!! ;)
I found the first steps and arguments, how to start gamedevelopment, written in a nice form in this article:
How Do I Make Games ?
Tetris -> Breakout -> Pacman -> Super Mario -> Ferrari
This way sounds very promising to learn some important parts of gamedevelopment, which won't loose validity in future.
Some other ressources i want to recommend:
- gdmag.com - very cool magazine for (wannabe) gamedevelopers, good articles and a reasonably priced digital download
- gamedev.net - Interesting articles and a very broad board with many members
- gamasutra.com - Business-News about games
- makinggames.de - Perhaps the most important german magazine with a great "job offer" category and a free test issue
- gameinformer.com - Great US-magazine with some exclusive news from the games industry
