Game content has NOTHING to do with api (such as direct3d, OpenGl)

direct3d and opengl are mainly for outputting to the screen through the video card, they just make a standard for output of certian instructions to the video card''s processor.

rdragon, if you are serious about game development, can I give you some advice? You need to learn the basics of programming before you even _consider_ writing any sort of graphical game. I can tell you from experience that you''ll just get frustrated if you try to jump straight into games, and you''ll never finish anything.

You should start off small, learn the fundamentals and then start working on game development. You''ll be MUCH happier that way.
