Clone can be astronomical. So, i know some ppl are not into programming for game dev, but for those who are... beware of python, it is a lie, you get all that elegance and power, and you get THIS kinda speed!? Python has to be some kinda sick joke!

First, learn C++ or C, then move to SDL or OpenGL, but, i'm pretty sure these tutorials will show you more on that as you move along. Just a word of advice, if you wanna make games stay clear from Python and Pygame, cause they are seriously slow.
