But it took me all day just to setup a 800x600 window w/ a triangle in it.
There's something called the Black Triangle effect or something. Can't google it because I'm overwhelmed by UFO stuff, but it's basically about a bunch of programmers going nuts and leaping around the room because they have a black triangle on the screen.
Non-technical producer type walks in and is confused by why a black triangle would cause such excitement.
Point is, it's a significant milestone - going from having nothing on the screen to having a triangle on the screen is a fundamental step forward.

woot I made a square. :D
See? Now put a texture on it. Then make a moving camera.
Only way to stay sane with this stuff is to take it all one tiny step at a time.
