Beginning iPhone Games Development14 May
Hey, my new book is out! (actually it has been out for a few weeks now, but I am just getting around to blogging about it :-)
Here is the amazon link:
http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-iPhone-Games-Development-Cabrera/dp/1430225998/
Anyhow, it is a really good book, even if you are not a beginner. Here is a snippet from the promo blurb about 'what you will learn':
- Efficient methods for drawing in 2D and 3D to the iPhone screen
- Game-specific animation techniques with Core Animation
- To use OpenGL ES for more complex and realistic gaming backgrounds and action
- Numerous ways to add music to enhance the gaming experience
- How to give your users access to their iPhone libraries from within games
- The tools and techniques of 3D audio for creating even more realistic gaming experiences
- How to do networking right, including two-player games over Bluetooth and multiplayer games over Wi-Fi
I wrote the chapters on OpenGL, so feel free to ask me any questions you might have about them :-)
Enjoy the book!
Cheers!
