You might start posting your questions in relevant places where people may find them sooner that can help you out...

First learn Java, and learn it very well. This should take a few years.
Then start writing the game design document. This should describe exactly what the game is, storyline etc. etc. in excruciating detail. It should also contain things like concept art.
Then create a technical design based on that design doc.

You should now be about half a year further along.

Then start looking at what APIs are appropriate at that time for the tasks at hand for your game.
