C++ video game question

Question

I plan on making games with C++ (if possible). The one thing I am stumped on is how to make graphics and getting out of the console. I want to know if I have to download something special or if I have to combine a couple languages together to get the desired result.

If you could give me any information on the subject of graphic and animation in C++ I would greatly appreciate it

Answer 1

You have to download third party libraries for graphics yes. Possible libraries could be SDL or I think cairo among many many others. The UE4 game engine is nice too.
