Basic Game Design & Creation for Fun & Learning (Game Development Series).Book & CD-ROM. - Softcover
Synopsis
Basic Game Design and Creation teaches novices (8-80) how to create ten different games ? no programming required. The book portrays two different but interconnected technologies ? game design, which teaches game enthusiasts simple techniques (players, sound, animation, scoring, scenery, etc) and object technology, a new natural paradigm for creating software that is revolutionizing the software industry. Through the step-by-step projects and creation of numerous games, readers actually become game designers, creating different kinds of objects and environments. Every chapter helps readers to create a new two dimensional and isometric game using Game Maker, a rapid-application development tool for beginning game programmers. Using many "drag and drop" tools and video tutorials, users are able to learn object technology, and can create and publish games very quickly. This is a must-have resource for anyone who is looking to master introductory game programming!
