Voting Question: Where should I start to get into video game programming?
I''m 19 years old and straight out of high school and have zero programming experience. Not one bit. So my question is where do I start? When I say programming, what I want to do is programming video games but even then I don't know what I would want to do programming wise in video games as I know that there are numerous positions in the industry. I feel most answers you get are to broad and to vague.
Yes, Google is my friend most of the time but in this case it seems to hurt more than anything. I think that there is so much information on the subject that all the good information actually gets covered up and so it's harder to find good information. When I search something of the sort all I seem to get is private schools that cost a ton of money or online tutorials who try to teach you but expect you know something and you don't and expect you to rely on a forum for help which might be a year old and doesn't have the answer to my question.
So I guess the question I'm trying to get to is would a degree in Computer Science be a good place to start? I've read a few places that while CS degrees might not be video game specific that you could still program video games based on that degree. My local community college offers intro to programming class and I believe a Java class. Would these be good classes to take? Also, what are some good schools that aren't to expensive that offer good programs in CS or video game programming or something of the sort?
The ultimate goal would be to work as a programmer at some game company but at the end of the day be able to work on my own game project.
Thanks!
