Making Small Games, Which Is Fun in Itself
I want to begin game development as a hobby, but I'm unsure where to start. I did follow through https://learnopengl.com/ a few years ago, and while it was a very interesting experience, I imagine I would need to use an existing engine to be productive.
Do you recommend any books and tutorials aimed at experienced programmers with 0 knowledge of game development/design?

Is there space in this field for extreme cases like mine ?
- Game development - Unity3D project based learning in C#: https://learn.unity.com/ - Graphics - There was another user on r/GraphicsProgramming the other day (who teaches Computer Graphics at his university) that linked their lecture series for the entry year of their course here: https://tamats.com/learn/realtime-graphics/ - Project based learning: https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/wiki - Rendering API tutorials: https://vulkan-tutorial.com/, https://learnopengl.com/

Where do I start to learn C++ for a game development
If u want to make 3D game, you'll probably want to learn some 3D shader graphic stuff. OpenGL is a good start. https://learnopengl.com

Ask HN: Learn Graphics Programming, Recommendations?
LearnOpenGl.com
Possibly a smidge outdated.
Goes from blank window to rendering 3d meshes with advanced lighting techniques (HDR, SSAO and more).
Heped me understand shader pipeline, so I recommend it.

Is a bounding volume a mesh? (for visualization)
I'm reading the guest article about frustum culling on learnopengl.com and there's a video demonstrating how it works and for debug purposes they have a bunch of spheres turning red or green which I assume means they're being culled or not so my question is if I wanted to do this do I have to make a mesh for whatever bounding volume shape or is there a specific method for something like this?

Ask HN: Yo wants to build a game, I'm lost. What can I do?
Godot [1] is a very nice game engine. There's a game on Itch.io that teaches the scripting language it uses [2], and a ton of great tutorials on YouTube for beginners and experts alike.

My thought on different engines
Godot Engine is a free and open-source game engine. The story started as an in-house engine of an Argentinian studio in 2007, and since 2014, it's been a community-driven project with a lot of contributors.
