Java Project.

[Frapple]

Received my 3 semester long project for Uni a few weeks ago, intended on building something in Java, as we have already done a unit on C++ and I wanted to compare, so I actually have something to write about.

Just wondering what would be possible for a novice, any recommendations?

Thought about doing a platform game, but I'm lost and haven't got a clue where to start.

Any recommended reading/tutorial sites/forums/link?

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, pretty confusing stuff.

Started writing some basic stuff today, print outs and echos.

The main point of the project is to aim for something big, like a game, website, database anything not so much the comparison, should have made the clear. The comparison is more of a personal thing.

Spent about 10 minutes wondering why it wouldn't work, released a "I" was suppose to be a "l", doh.
