[gameprogrammer] Re: C++ tutor

I also recently read an endorsement for the text Essential C++. My
recommendation would be to instead of starting with a simple game, start
with a game element. For example can you write a game element between
two opposing characters - blue ball; red ball. Elements might be attract
or repel; seek and destroy; bait and switch; think of elements in games
that are appealing or attractive to you when playing a game, then prove
your programming by building that element followed by turning the
element into a game. Build a front end and back end to the element game.

Or write your own simple game and then add to it!
