I want to start making games, and i heard that i could code in openGL.
Is this true and wher can i download an application to start making games?
If not, what program can i use and where can i get it?
Thanks
OpenGL is an Application Programming Interface (API) not a programming language itself. You need to learn a programming language like C/C++ first in order to use OpenGL for the graphics but bear in mind that a game consists of a lot more then just the graphics.
Check the “Getting started” page right here:
http://www.opengl.org/resources/faq/getting_started.html
As far as those “game creating programs” are concerned: they are all crap IMHO.
