	Oh, i forgot to mention some advice i got when i started out -
forget the plot on your first game. Make a game that will challenge
you slightly technically but forget the actuall involved story.
	Why? Because your first game rarely turns out the way you want
it too. You'll scrape it together, learn tons of graphics and data types
and stuff, but you'll keep finding you did things wrong or could do them
better and before you know it, you hate your game and want to trash it
and start over.
	And when you do, you'll know more about programming games,
and will have plenty of time to get a really awesome story line.
