if you don't know any programming languages inside and out, trying to write a game is not something you should attempt. Set your goals a lot lower...

well , yeah, you definitely should start with learning (and processing) programming first, but don't let go of the ideas you have on your head about the game, that's the soul of the project, remember that anybody out there can program (after learning of course) but no one out there have the ideas you want to incorporate in your game.

Happy coding !!! ;)

Ahh well, not entirely true ;-)
Sure a lot of people can learn how to program. But not everyone :P You need to have a basic understanding on how logic works, and that's not something you can learn.

Im absolutly sure our time can be better spent than bumping this kind of thread!
