Hi,
I want to try to create a game using D. I'm a complete newbie
though (other than having C/C++ experience). Where would I
start? Does D have an openGL binding? I am assuming I'll need
to leverage a good amount C APIs? Any list of these that would
be useful it a game setting?
Obviously this all depends on *how* much work I want to do.
Ideally, I'd like a collection of tools that will get me
roughly the equivalent of what XNA provides.
The is derilict-gl
and then there is the dgame library
Check out the DerelictOrg bindings in general:

In particular DerelictAssimp3 might help with animation and scene
loading.
Other related game libraries are in the dub registry:
