Did you start with GScript?

I'm just saying that it was fun to make some suckish games quickly ... I recall making a game on Sonic with a friend, we had like 6 crappy games you could download.

Attached is a application I began programming with C++ a couple weeks ago.

At the moment the program has the following features:

• [Custom]Has its own file format for resources (.ocr: levels, meshes, worlds)
• [DirectX]Draws graphics (text, mesh files, images)
• [WinSock]Connects to a server (only connects)
• [DirectX]Reads input from devices (mouse, keyboard)

I don't think using C++ and DirectX itself is a good idea unless you're creating a high-level 3D gaming engine. You're probably better off using SDL in place of DirectX (SDL uses DirectX to render or can be set to work alongside OpenGL).

I would use C# and SDL.NET if I wanted to make a game.

The most recent version of Game Maker is actually pretty advanced and can even load custom DLLs ;o

C# isn't powerful, and SDL is cheating in my eyes.

How so is SDL cheating if it allows rapid application development?

Exactly. It's a helping tool, in a way.

I think that every programming language is cheating; people need to build their own programming languages, it's cheating to use someone else's.

Yea, lets all use ASM to create games ;D

The American Society For Microbiology?

I don't think that'd work too well.

Good work; assembly.

PHP while scripting Housekeeping for Habbo Hotel Retros.
Saw GS1 and the many similarities - then GS2, etc.

I started with Pascal No Graalscript back then

I've always had you balanced between the Smart and Retard sides of the meter but that tilted it towards Retard.

You should stay away from the game development world.

And by the way, how is C# not powerful?

Anyways, I started with gscript I'm now doing more C++ though..
