I''m looking for an (internet preferred) resource about how to make a tetris game in c++. I read an article on www.gamedev.net that said Tetris would be the best place to start a first game. So that''s what I want to do. It can be MFC, or C++ using opengl or even directx. Anyone know where I can find this stuff? Thanks!

Tetris is a good place to start, but I think the best way to learn how to do it is to learn how to use Win32 and DirectDraw, and do the tetris part yourself.

Experience is the best teacher.

Check out the interactive game development thing in its own forum. It covers up to making a tetris game.
