Death by Gaming

I seem to have hit a problem...................sort of like =
Mr.Poe----only with more 0's and 1's.
Here's the situation, I've been programming with Euphoria since last =
summer, and I *thought* by now, I could make some type of "game" (erase =
all stereotypes of beginner programmers trying to make quake 4). I knew =
it was a ****long**** process to get anything done, heck, at first I =
couldn't figure out puts(). But, the only working game I've made is =
Hangman, with text graphics, I'm working on a Western Stand-off game, =
but I need the registered version to finish it 'cause it's so long. But, =
there's that whole problem of being 15 and not having a credit card to =
order, but never mind that. So.........
1) Have I just got a long way to go?
2) Am I missing some commands essential to games?
3) Is there a game programming tutorial somewhere in that great big =
binary in the sky?
4) Should I plug away at ABGTE2 for a couple months?
All I want is a cheesy side scroller, no, a tank game. It's hard to be =
creative in DOS with text graphics.
I'm sure you've all been here at one point, so, any advice?
