What kind of game did you have in mind? ^_~
Serriously though if you want to learn more about it yourself there are plenty of free guides on the web that could teach you more about programing than you would learn getting an official degree. Try to find a free game engine, get an express version of Visual Studio (free download from MS), and have at it. Fairly sure you could find some 3d modeling software as well, which seems like something you'd be a natural at.
