u r sooo right, but if u wanna make a game like packman or mario, then game maker is good. im using game maker because its the only code-language i know, and i dont wanna spend a year learning C++ language or something. but i guess i learned my lesson: the strategy game im working is laggy and has a few bugs :P
@TheKingMartin25 actually you would be surprised i learned C++ before I started using game maker and the game maker code is pretty similar for the most part. Rendering visuals and stuff is more complex for sure but as far as the basic logic if you can make a strategy game with game maker you can handle basic C++ programming structures for sure .
hmmm sounds interesting. my father is a good C++ programmer, and he also has some books about the C++ language, so maybe i should start learning C++ :D
@TheKingMartin25 yeah I would definitely look into it, while this guy CLEARLY is going on only things he heard ( and granted he does admit that several times during the video ). the main thing he said that makes sense and is important is that once you get the logic down learning the language is arbitrary.

@ZeroDominance I began in C++ after some HTML. It wasn't too hard. You just have to have the right mindset to understand the concepts of programming nature.
I personally don't like XCode that much. For Mac development I'd rather use QT editor (I know it comes with the QT GUI library but you don't need to use the QT library to use their IDE).
This guy doesn't have a clue what he is talking about. Use visual studio? That's almost as bad as saying, 'use Windows', or, 'use a language'.
Here are some decent options:
Use C# + xna,
use flash,
use the unreal engine
make mods for games such as half life
use java + java 3D
use C++ + OGRE
Or if you want to start at a low-level, affording you complete control, then go for C++ or C# + directx or opengl + a good book like game code complete. But this will take ages.

@pufixas Is the English language not a programming language? Do you not use it to change the state of a recipient human being? The effect of a particular combination of words is not entirely determined, but it is still quite predictable, otherwise you wouldn't bother communicating. Besides, the effect of commands made to a computer are not entirely predictable; they often depend on the current state of the computer just as the effect of English words depend on the current state of the person...
@pufixas Also, a scripting language is a particular type of programming language. Check Wikipedia if you don't believe me. Even the interface provided by an operating system is a programming language. You use it to change the state of a computer don't you? Each mouse-click is like calling some large function. Actually, that is exactly what happens. It is like a specific-purpose, interpreted programming language
@steamednotfried do you have like some kind of anatomical problem? maybe there's a medical term for this but shit is coming out of your fingers and onto the keyboard to form sentences that appear like they're in english.
@NakedCreep OK, thank you. Here's a tip: try thinking. At least tell me what the fundamental difference is between programming a computer with javascript and changing the state of a human by talking to them.
@NakedCreep OK, think about it like this: when you talk to someone, you might want them to understand something. So you want to get their brain from its current state to the state where they understand the thing. Each word will change their state in some way, depending on their current state and the other words you combine it with. So your job is to work out which combination of words will take their brain from its current state to the desired state. English is a programming language.
@NakedCreep If you want to think about it in terms of directions; then consider that every word gives directions to the interpreter of words in the person's brain as to how to change the brain's state.
@steamednotfried Computers and human brains are good at very different things. A command to a person is just a suggestion and how they will take it depends on their mood.
Humans are great at fuzzy logic and converting sensory stimuli, they are poor at raw analytical skills. Imagine doing a long division problem. While you are "slowly crunching away" the numbers, your brain reads the recognizable scribbles as numbers and tells your hand how to move to write other numbers. It does a lot.
@AndyHarglesis Actually I had dropped it. I realised that these guys weren't going to get it. Come on, of course assembly is lower level then c++. The thing is is that someone said that c++ isn't low level because assembly is lower. To which I pointed out that, by the same logic, assembly isn't low level because programming by physically composing logic gates is lower. And, also by the same logic, c++ IS low level because it is lower than c#. Pure nonsense.
@steamednotfried Yeah, that makes perfect sense, but I still kinda get the message that you were trying to piss them off.
Obviously composing logic gates is lower than C++ and a language like BASIC is obviously higher than C++, like Allegro is higher than OpenGL and DirectX.
The levels don't really matter overall though.
What people want to do is learn PROGRAMMING as a whole and how to do it and how it works.
@AndyHarglesis Ah, programming. Why didn't ya say so? If you wanna learn programming then there is a palace of gems of a resource for you. Find the video lectures hosted by MIT on their 'open course ware' website under the name, 'the structure and interpretation of computer programs'.
Or if you want a chocolate fountain of a resource, check out Richard Buckland's lectures here on youtube under the name 'higher computing'. In fact, if you are a beginner, I would recommend the fountain first.
@cmonutube Oh, I forgot to mention, MIT also offer a more conventional first course on Computer Science where they introduce programming via Python. This one is very good and much more strait-forward for a lot of people than 'the structure and interpretation of computer programs'. They are all worth watching though, and 'the structure and interpretation of computer programs' is definitely the most enlightening when you are ready for it.
chris no offense but if you really don't have any idea what it takes to get started in game programming then you really shouldn't make a video on the subbject.
Dorkopolis needs slapped. I had to do Alice in my first year of college. it was pathetic.
It's barely even programming.
If you want to make PC games that can be uploaded to websites easily for people to play I reccomend starting with either Game Maker.com (GML language)ROBLOX.com (Lua language), Byond.com (Dream Maker).
And if you really suck you can try Game makers drag and drop scripting format or Alice's drag and drop scripting format. But it's kinda lame.
Sorry to say it but this guy clearly has no idea about game development, he's just shouting the only language it seems he's heard of.
If you're thinking about doing this seriously and actually making a large project with your skills, then C++ is really the only way to do it. It may be the largest (and therefore the most intimidating) but if you learn anything prior to C++, it only makes it harder.
Otherwise, Python or Java is a great place to start if you want to make a few cool games.
@bla1bla2bla3blah4 I disagree. C# (Used for XNA) is easier to learn and will get you into the right mindset for game development. Once you've wrapped your head around the logic and mindset for programming games, then you should move on to C++.
Even if C or C++ are a little hard for complete beginners I recommend those to learn because they are the ones that are used in basically everything. If you learn C or C++ , you can program in everything.
@webDes33 I'm personally learning C++ and hope to learn OpenGL more specifically pretty soon. I'm planning to be a freelance programmer, and I'm even starting to make a game right now. :3 MLP:FiM based game.
I am 13 and i can program html, java, and c++ ! :) I have one question, im have an android phone and i want to make apps but eclipse isn't working, please help :(
Yes, if you know zip, then a non-compiling language like Python will keep your interest up.
C++ is a harsh road to start on, but that will be your path eventually. C# is a Winblows Java-imitator, but certainly not a place to start. Getting your hands on Maya, to flesh out your characters, etc. is a must. Yeah, there are other ways, but they really don't lead you to Maya which is where you need to end-up.
To develop the game he'd definatly need to know C++. He should start with the book C++ for dummies to ease him into it because it can be tricky to get to grips with. A friend of mine who also knew C++ went on to learn objective C and develped a decent iPhone app. There another guy on youtube, he didn't know C++ or objective c and he learnt and built a game in 30 days for the iphone. Search for "iphone app 30 days" he done a video diary, interesting
honestly, in my opinion, game maker is a better program to start with, just for starting, it will help you learn a LOT of game design techniques, it is what i started with, and it helped me with programming, graphics, music, sound effects, and story building :)
I dont get why people like python so much >.> Starting off with AS3 (flash with flashdevelop) with a library (flixel or flashpunk) will give you a much better advantage with the ability to embed and share your game better. It is also not a hard language to learn when using a library (although pygame is a library with python).
@xXDeadshadowXx Start programming with python. search for a channel named ''thenewboston'' and watch ALL of the tutorials(and you also need to know lots of mathematics) then watch .pygame tutorials, that's what make games. Remember that making games is not easy, otherwise, its really hard until you know what you are doing.
C++ is a way to go. Although it is difficult (especially references/pointers), it is really rewarding. After this you had better to choose a library (DirectX/OpenGL/SDL) for your use, learn to use it (I´m currently learning to use OpenGL, difficult yes, I suck at math, but C++ I know very well). This is how I´d recommend to things. Forget XNA, Game Maker etc, there aren´t just worth it.

@luckykingjordan you sound experienced, and I have some questions.I was reccommended to start learning programming games ( I have no experience at this point) by trying to recreate simple games on my own, like pong and tetris. I understand that c++ is mostly for 3d games, should I use c# to start out? Especially for 2d games. Or python?
@Gosox2525 who told you this bro? C++ is for ALL Dimensions, not just 3d. if you wanna do something in 2d, all you need is a basic knowledge of c++ and a 2d gaming engine like "Allegro". I've played around with Allegro and its easy as hell. If you need a good tutorial try "Lussikamage" has good/detailed tutorials. Overrall,Do this: step 1:Learn c++ BASICS(not BASIC, but basics of c++ itself) step 2:Learn a gaming engine(try allegro) step 3:Learn gaming theory & collision detection. combine!
@Gosox2525 Oh and if you need any help with c++ issues, I will be happy to help you with any problem(within the scope of my limited knowledge base), just message me.
also, there are lots of programming and gaming forums with top notch people who can help you too!
@Gosox2525 start with python.There is a youtube channel named ''thenewboston''that guy MAKES THE BEST tutorials on internet(its free!:))i'm 12 years old and i'm finishing my First person shooter(made in .pygame).Once u download python, download pygame.Watcxh thenewboston introduction to python and pygame
@Starcraft2Rogue Fair play to you, I'm a programmer and the earlier you start the more natural it will become to you. I'd be very proud if you were my son.
@sorryunlucky Download python, after that if you want to develop games, download a .pygame extension to python, pygame. then go to ''thenewboston''youtube channel and watch Pygame tutorials. watch the first 1, even the installing one, because you may get errors. Good luck, and thanks!
@Starcraft2Rogue true i also saw but well i saw the C++ tutorials, well my standard programming language is c++ and im already into directx 10.0 syntax you should try it !
I started learning out of a book, but i found the best way to learn was to start a project, okay, not mmorpg, but sumin u can do in 2 months, so say an fps game, learn to model a gun, to uv map it, how to make terrain, then add more models, then add an fps controller, then add scripts for gui, ammo, animation, lighting, build a game from scratch, when u need code, look it up, if u cant find the code, modify some existing stuff, if it doesnt work, go on the forums, i learnt so much this way, aft
all of you game developers, I want to start game developing and the only thing i've done at school is Game Maker and that costs some money I think. I want to start with Java because Notch, the creator of Minecraft, makes most of his games with Java and it seems really good for games. Is there anything else that would be easier but as powerful as Java?
@koreanmchoi what kind of games use c++? games like the first prince of persia or new generation games? i like video games and i would like to be a game developer, but i have to learn c++ first.
@benitoparra you don't really have to learn c++.. game developing isn't all about programming... programming would be useless if there were no models (characters, weapons, trees, houses).. first of all you have to learn the theory.. then you can experiment... but if you are really interested in game developing then you should start by deciding on what you want to do... do you want to make graphics or animate the character or even design models? decide on something and start following tutorials..
@Nickolakis21aek I know that, but i would like to start making my own games, nothing big just something to begin with to have some practice so i would have to learn programming too as well as have some of imagination for the plot of the game and all that, but i'd really like to get into programming.
@benitoparra Then try a ready-made game engine. Go to Unity3D (.) com (all with lowercase). There's plenty of documentation on the site and lots of tutorials on youtube. Have fun developing. :)
i want to start programming games but i can omly code in html-__- im a good in html but not in the c line. my school sucks (hs) they dont teach us nothing
@nickdakiller37 html is not programming bro, it's just coding. If you're serious about this, you should look at: 1)what language is not TOO complex 2)functionality and features(how powerful and versatile stuff you can do) 3)cross-compatibility( what/how many platforms you can perform on) Hint: MOBILE DEV APPS/GAMING(Java,OBj-C(Apple uses this!)) CONSOLE APPS/GAMING(C/C++ are powerhouses!) It seems hard AT FIRST, but gets EASY! learn BASICS FIRST! "THE NEW BOSTON" has good tuts. Practice ALOT!

@NakedCreep OK, thank you. Here's a tip: try thinking. At least tell me what the fundamental difference is between programming a computer with javascript and changing the state of a human by talking to them.
steamednotfried 4 months ago
@steamednotfried
Take English for example:
The English language is a bunch of words, and inside the language exists a programming language.
What is that programming language you say? DIRECTIONS.
What is programming? Directions for the computer.
So the English language as a whole is not a programming language, but a programming language is a derivative of the English language.
You just sound like a 15 year old with a theory that just isn't scientific theory.
NakedCreep 4 months ago
@NakedCreep OK, think about it like this: when you talk to someone, you might want them to understand something. So you want to get their brain from its current state to the state where they understand the thing. Each word will change their state in some way, depending on their current state and the other words you combine it with. So your job is to work out which combination of words will take their brain from its current state to the desired state. English is a programming language.
steamednotfried 4 months ago
@NakedCreep If you want to think about it in terms of directions; then consider that every word gives directions to the interpreter of words in the person's brain as to how to change the brain's state.

@steamednotfried My tits are hard.
Is that a direction?
No.
And no, saying something to make a person think about it is not a direction. You are not directing them, they're processing what you are saying..

@steamednotfried Computers and human brains are good at very different things. A command to a person is just a suggestion and how they will take it depends on their mood.
Humans are great at fuzzy logic and converting sensory stimuli, they are poor at raw analytical skills. Imagine doing a long division problem. While you are "slowly crunching away" the numbers, your brain reads the recognizable scribbles as numbers and tells your hand how to move to write other numbers. It does a lot.

Assembly IS a lower-level language than C++. Drop it.
AndyHarglesis 3 months ago
@AndyHarglesis Actually I had dropped it. I realised that these guys weren't going to get it. Come on, of course assembly is lower level then c++. The thing is is that someone said that c++ isn't low level because assembly is lower. To which I pointed out that, by the same logic, assembly isn't low level because programming by physically composing logic gates is lower. And, also by the same logic, c++ IS low level because it is lower than c#. Pure nonsense.
steamednotfried 3 months ago
@steamednotfried Yeah, that makes perfect sense, but I still kinda get the message that you were trying to piss them off.
Obviously composing logic gates is lower than C++ and a language like BASIC is obviously higher than C++, like Allegro is higher than OpenGL and DirectX.
The levels don't really matter overall though.
What people want to do is learn PROGRAMMING as a whole and how to do it and how it works.
AndyHarglesis 3 months ago
@AndyHarglesis Ah, programming. Why didn't ya say so? If you wanna learn programming then there is a palace of gems of a resource for you. Find the video lectures hosted by MIT on their 'open course ware' website under the name, 'the structure and interpretation of computer programs'.
Or if you want a chocolate fountain of a resource, check out Richard Buckland's lectures here on youtube under the name 'higher computing'. In fact, if you are a beginner, I would recommend the fountain first.

It's barely even programming.
If you want to make PC games that can be uploaded to websites easily for people to play I reccomend starting with either Game Maker.com (GML language)ROBLOX.com (Lua language), Byond.com (Dream Maker).
And if you really suck you can try Game makers drag and drop scripting format or Alice's drag and drop scripting format. But it's kinda lame.
C++ isn't for beginners.

Sorry to say it but this guy clearly has no idea about game development, he's just shouting the only language it seems he's heard of.
If you're thinking about doing this seriously and actually making a large project with your skills, then C++ is really the only way to do it. It may be the largest (and therefore the most intimidating) but if you learn anything prior to C++, it only makes it harder.
Otherwise, Python or Java is a great place to start if you want to make a few cool games.
bla1bla2bla3blah4 5 months ago
@bla1bla2bla3blah4 I disagree. C# (Used for XNA) is easier to learn and will get you into the right mindset for game development. Once you've wrapped your head around the logic and mindset for programming games, then you should move on to C++.

Yes, if you know zip, then a non-compiling language like Python will keep your interest up.
C++ is a harsh road to start on, but that will be your path eventually. C# is a Winblows Java-imitator, but certainly not a place to start. Getting your hands on Maya, to flesh out your characters, etc. is a must. Yeah, there are other ways, but they really don't lead you to Maya which is where you need to end-up.

To develop the game he'd definatly need to know C++. He should start with the book C++ for dummies to ease him into it because it can be tricky to get to grips with. A friend of mine who also knew C++ went on to learn objective C and develped a decent iPhone app. There another guy on youtube, he didn't know C++ or objective c and he learnt and built a game in 30 days for the iphone. Search for "iphone app 30 days" he done a video diary, interesting

I dont get why people like python so much >.> Starting off with AS3 (flash with flashdevelop) with a library (flixel or flashpunk) will give you a much better advantage with the ability to embed and share your game better. It is also not a hard language to learn when using a library (although pygame is a library with python).

@xXDeadshadowXx Start programming with python. search for a channel named ''thenewboston'' and watch ALL of the tutorials(and you also need to know lots of mathematics) then watch .pygame tutorials, that's what make games.

C++ is a way to go. Although it is difficult (especially references/pointers), it is really rewarding. After this you had better to choose a library (DirectX/OpenGL/SDL) for your use, learn to use it (I´m currently learning to use OpenGL, difficult yes, I suck at math, but C++ I know very well). This is how I´d recommend to things. Forget XNA, Game Maker etc, there aren´t just worth it.

@benitoparra you don't really have to learn c++.. game developing isn't all about programming... programming would be useless if there were no models (characters, weapons, trees, houses).. first of all you have to learn the theory.. then you can experiment... but if you are really interested in game developing then you should start by deciding on what you want to do... do you want to make graphics or animate the character or even design models? decide on something and start following tutorials..
