There is also PyGame, which uses Python...
Good luck!

Another very simple utility for making games (it's pretty basic, but lots of fun) is a programme called GameMaker. Last time I checked GameMaker 6 was out, it might be further by now. It actually abstracts the programming so you don't need to know the language behind it (Delphi as far as I know) in order to build a game. And there are a number of lovely tutorials available.

Wow I must check it out. :) It's a lovely simple way to make games. Not as powerful as others might be, but I enjoyed it :) Thanks for the heads up.
