Hi to everyone

I will looking for a presentation section, but i didn’t find it. I’m a java business developer from Italy, I got knoweldge on java and many frameworks like spring, jakarta struts, open jpa, grails, etc… But my dream is always be to create a video game. So I’m looking for some help and I’ve found this amazing forum.

I’ve read the newbe resources but I need to clarify my mind, if i want to create for example a little game to start like pong or break out, the best way it’s to do it all on my own, there’s no library that i can use who can be helpful?

slick2d is too advanced for noob?

thx for your help, and scuse me for my english but i don’t believe in google translators. ;D
