Be it adventure games, action, rpg..etc,3d,2d...etc and the very known ,Online games,
everyone wants to be a part of it.
There are many ways to make a game.
Programming languages such as java , c++ , javascript, flash/actionscript and other languages.
There are also loads of programs out there,
recently i bought a 3d gamemaker..its good.
There are programs for making online games such as realm crafter or dark basic trials...but one must know some coding.
Then there is the very famous, mostly used online :
PHP
Php ,a very powerful language, can be used to create almost anything. Its limitations are not known. If combined with javascript,css and ajax ..well .. It leads to powerful and "WOW" results. (believe me, i am playing such a game)..
they are created in the form of online web/text based games.
Now im focusing on php for now, because its the language i currently know the most 'bout.
Infact not only php, but with many other languages you can make games.
I'd suggest, like ive seen in many forums, start with actionscript and flash and try to master it. I dont know actionscript and not much flash used since 1-2 years but im starting now, and you should too. Then move onto complex languages like php for internet games or java or javascript and then finally C++.
Get into a group, discuss some of your thoughts , ask for help . Even the simplest of doubts should be asked.
Start your own group, work on a project, and one by one master everything.
Just some thoughts on game creating,
