Hello, I am new to this forum and C++.I am self taught. My goal is to become proficient and become an indie game developer. I have already finished my first simple practice game, a simple guessing game, but I need ideas for easy-to-make games that I could program to learn more. (At the moment, my knowledge is basic IO, If statements, and loops.) Thanks!
Spend a few minutes on looking up the basics of classes and try a card game. Games like Uno, Hearts, etc. work reasonably well, even on the console. But you should try to get away from the console as quickly as possible, it's not suited for games.
