About this ebook
This book is a step-by-step tutorial with a lot of screenshots that help to explain the concept better. This book will cover the building of a 3D game for Windows Phone using XNA. We won't explain the C# programming language itself, nor object-oriented programming. We will however explain the aspects of game development thoroughly, so don't worry if you have never written a 3D game. We will cover all the basics, included the much dreaded math. This is the right book for anyone, regardless of age and gender, if: You are interested in game development, You want to start building games for Windows Phone, You have some programming knowledge. In this book, we will first go over the technical topics, and end up building a 3D game for Windows Phone 7 together!
