Notas do Editor
- Written mostly in XNA. Rest are Silverlight.I want to move them to WinRT
- Don’t know much about Win Phone 8 yet.
- Windows Phone 8 SDK is not out yet. Invite only.
- There are more game types than this, but it gives us a starting point.What do these games share.
- Sarah gave a great talk about Game design. I’m not going to cover that.Each one of these elements could be an entire talk.The StoryLine is very important, drives the decisions made in other areas.
- Three types of Renderers.Renderers help us draw and manage game elements.XNA is Game loop based.Different types of XNA on WP7 and PC and XBOX and Monogame.MonoGame supports most 2D and 3D commands.MonoGame doesn’t support content management yet. Have to use a PC XNA to create XNB’s.
- Sl can use timer based or event based renderer.Show Newtons Cradle as event baseShow Flames as timer based game.
