Game Development

We get a decent amount of requests for games, so it's something we've talked about. But we don't have any plans in the near-term for games. There is just so much to cover! As usual, thanks for the feedback as it's important for us to know what everyone expects from us.

Well if I does come up ... I will be the first few to check it out ;)

Ultra excited now to start the course ie the First App

Hey Ben,

Just curios, if I want to learn game development , Where do I start, what books should I read, what is the easiest project I can start with (and where can I get the codes) ?

Thanks for your patience and advice

I'm not much of a game expert, so I can't provide too much help! That said, I've looked at a few books/resources that seem to be good (though I can't vouch for them from personal experience):

• Android: http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-Android-4-Games-Development/dp/1430239875
• iOS: http://www.merowing.info/2013/04/learn-ios-game-dev-level-0/

Thanks ... At any rate I love the tutorials :) And I am almost done with the Crystal Ball app ...

Thinking of going at it again but change the concept , will u be interested looking at it (once done)?

Absolutely - post a link! I just went through all the Crystal Ball apps on Google Play a week or two ago. It was so cool to see so many versions and how some people changed it in different ways!
