VBGamer

Start simple. Learn about picturebox controls, and experiment moving them around in response to keystrokes(keydown,keyup events - I assume you know a bit of non-game-specific VB like how to work with event procedures, how to write functions etc. if not, start by learning the language itself, and then move on to game techniques later. It'll make way more sense that way!) Then have a look at the VB timer(to run code frame by frame) and write a small game - try pong for starters. - using a timer and pictureboxes. If you can do that, you've got your foot in the door and will be ready to start learning about more advanced topics. But start with that and see where it gets you! This board's the best place to post VB gaming questions. Most of the regular game development boards will just make fun of you for using VB. Even at the advanced level. Wankers... Above all, Have Fun! :-)
