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?

And ofcourse artwork if you want a graphical game, maybe some sounds too.

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.

you mean a C++ book that teaches you code? or a C++ book that has code for game programming?

Something like this:
