Default game programming

I've been learing C++ recently and I wanted to know, does anyone know what I would need to start programming small games? I know C++ is required but I do not know if that is all thats neccassary, I assume it is to an extent but what else do I need in order to create something substantial?

All you need is notepad and a compiler software-wise. You will need a reference book, text book or website equivalent for showing you the code. I'm not sure if C++ has the same style API online as Java, but if it does you should look it up, that stuff is handy.

Something like this:
http://www.cppreference.com/wiki/

It's a list of how individual commands and functions work.
