Welcome, Marek.
I had a professor with that last name...

[AntiMatter]

Hello everyone.
My name is Jesse, I'm 14, and I just recently started learning c++ (I've been watching AntiRTFM's tutorials for about 2 weeks now)
I learned a bit of python when I was 13.

BTW Please don't label me as an arrogant prick because of my age, just ticks me off when people label me as the young arrogant person stereotype.

[Moosader]

Lol. I think most people stereotype 13 year olds as ignorant overzealous newbs, moreso than arrogant or prick-like (When I was 12, I remember thinking the older people were that way, though).
I will refrain from making such assumptions, though. Welcome.

Hey!
My name is Alex, I'm 16 and from Austria ( thats in Europe ).
Currently I'm working on a projekt in C++ with SDL.
Before C/C++ i've coded in PureBasic and VisualBasic.
I've started (game)programming with 11 - but I've always had the problem with beeing motivated - so I've never finished most of my projects.
At the moment I'm working on a 2D platformer like Megaman. So nothing special
I've been reading the forums now and then - just wanted to say "Hey" finally ;D

[Falco Girgis]

One of my first projects was a 2D Megaman 3-style platformer. :D

Welcome.

I never would have guessed!




Haha, welcome. Megaman is one of my favorite game series' of all time so its good to hear that people like you take it as inspiration for game projects.

[TheFinalFanatic]

Hey all! Names Henri, im 16 and living in the UK. Been learning and playing around with C++ for a few months now, on and off, loving it and hoping to continue

To create my own game is something I've wanted to do from a very young age, so hopefully i'll eventually be able to move on from learning the core language and start with a graphics library and such. So yea, hello to you all.

[MarauderIIC]

Hello Alex, Henri!

Agreed, I'm 14 too and that completely pisses me off. Especially since to most of the people who I regularly talk to disagree with me being ignorant, arrogant... And well... A prick.

EDIT: Welcome!

[Dunc]

Hello my names Duncan and I am 16 years old. My first real program was a calculator which was made around the age of 10 written in VB.

I just began learning C++ a year ago and have made several horrible games. None of which are original. My current project is probably over way over my head at the moment but I am managing. Anyways, just saying high.

[dandymcgee]

Anyways, just saying high.

Welcome Dunc.

[MarauderIIC]

Ahoy, Duncan!

[Firzen]

So: "Hello world, I'm new"

My Name is Nils Ole Timm and I'm from germany. I am 19 years of age and been programming for some years.

I generally write in C# but am changing to C++ recently to escape the limitations of Microsoft.
My first program was a small adventure game written in Turbo Pascal when I was 8, I had helped with that however and did not get what was going on back then.

The first thing I wrote all by myself was some sort of fireworks screensaver when I was 11 or something I think.
