are there some good infos,links,tutorials, books focusing on actual game programming? how to build a game from the beginning to the end. i have good knowledge in c/c++ and opengl. i also made something that i would call an engine. so now what to do, to turn this into a game? i am NOT asking how to build an engine or something like that. it goes about "game programming". thanks

Three good websites for game programming tutorials. None of them really tell you how to put everything together to make a game though. I think you will find that most books and websites teach you the skills needed to make your own game, you have to take the next step yourself.

I''ve read OpenGL Game Programming which has a chapter at the end that tells you how to put everything you''ve learn so far in the book together to make a fairly simple game.

Hope that helps a bit.

thanks so far.

i thought about bying "Programming Role-Playing Games with DirectX".
but "game programming all in one" sound really interesting too.

anyone got some table of contents of this book?

programming roleplaying games is good if you know enough C/C++, teaches a lot of different stuff, it focuses on DX8 though.
