Well, I'm already a L33T coder, but good luck to anyone participating -smiles-

I too started in Java, however learning the syntax of coding is only half the battle, the clincher is the linear cause/effect thought process that is easier taught using visual scripting programs like Games Factory, & Game Maker. Such are far more beneficial to people just starting off -nods-

Yeah, the most coding I've done is messing around with Arduino.

So far, I've found the Codeyear stuff to be pretty interesting/engaging.

What are you working on now?
I saw a reference to a game level in some other post (don't remember where).

Ahh, Im working on a Game for the Steam Indie Network : http://store.steampowered.com/

Ill post links when I'm done -nods-

Cant post anything at the moment or my producer will put a 9 millimeter to the back of my head and pull the trigger. Then curse the universe into oblivion since I'm the creative director/lead coder lol...

I understand

I know some people over at Bethesda and no amount of cajoling will get them to spill their beans

Nooooo, they're money hungry bastages ;p

(Actually, I feel bad in that I have talked to them in a while - we used to work together, but now it's pretty much FB.)

Hehe, aint they just...

I don't know how much your interested in coding from a gaming perspective but if you want more tutorials on such : http://www.3dbuzz.com/vbforum/sv_home.php

Buzz, is pretty useful, they cover iPhone mostly trough Unity Engine/iOS -nods-

They sport some really good video walk throughs on making a basic game start to finish

I wish there was such help when I was starting out lol, the pains I went through while modding Operation Flashpoint & AOE

Good times
