Re: Game Ideas
1. Please, don't post in such a "big" font - its just ugly and makes it a pain to read D:
2. There are really good tutorials out there that teach you the basics for SDL. (e.g. http://www.lazyfoo.net/SDL_tutorials/ )
3. For the game ideas, try to keep it simple if you're just starting out ( http://lazyfoo.net/articles/article01/index.php )

Agreed.
If you didn't use SDL to make TicTacToe, what did you use?Ninico wrote:Ok so I made 2 games one in the Games Factory and one in C++. The one in the games factory is called Raining Meteor and the C++ game is a Tic Tac Toe game. I need some game ideas and somebody to teach me SDL. I would really appreciate it! Also SPIDER MONKEY! and it would be pretty nice if I can get somebody to help me with some graphics!
The need for graphics, especially if you're just starting out, should come completely secondary to what and how you're developing. All you really need to start out with the lower-level games is Paint. Anything above that, in my opinion, is overkill to the first few projects that are only meant for self-educating purposes.

I think a 4D MMOFPSRTSRPG is more suitable.adikid89 wrote:Make a MMORPG...
But seriously, have you checked out Gyro's getting started in game development videos? They're quite helpful to say the least.
