Want to get into making roguelikes...
« on: November 03, 2012, 09:34:42 am »
...But I have no idea where to start.
I have no coding experience, whatsoever.
I'm willing to learn, for the most part.

So my real question is:
Are there any coding languages I can learn and use relatively easily without spending obscene amounts of money on books or videos, or huge amounts of time?

You should check out the Roguelike Developement megathread in other games.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

Yeah, was going to point you to the megathread too. It's kind of a common topic around here :P
