I wrote up a couple little guides on game design and converted them to PDF's a few weeks ago, my friend bugged me enough that I posted them up on mediafire...well here's the links, if you enjoy them say so:

I didn't get into programming yet, but I may make one on how to program a game in java or c++ by this december...oh well my schedule's nuts enjoy the guides ^^
