Hey what's wrong with C++? I would learn to program on a C++ compiler just
not using any classes. Once I had a firm grounding in good procedural
programming I would learn classes. Classes are really helpful. You are more
likely to produce reusable, well-designed code using C++ classes.

Um, Well lets see. I recomend LEARNING TO PROGRAM. Then making a SIMPLE
game, gradually working your way up the scale until you can make good games.

Then I recomend using C and not C++. Before you can make a game i would
suggest you make a good number of applications. And try a command line
compiler as DJGPP is free and a great compiler.
