When it comes to game programming, size does matter, at least when you’re a beginner. Even if your head is full of ideas, pace yourself, write them down and start something small instead.
Why ? From personnal experiences, I’ve discovered that I was actualy learning more from small project that I was able to finish, than from big and ambitious projects that I was never able to get past the half of what I planned.
It does not matter what the small project is: a small pong-clone, an air hockey simulator or breakout-clone. All you need is to be able to create something that you’re going to be able to finish, learn from your mistakes and be proud of the result.
