Session: Sensible iPhone game programming with Cocos2d

Wednesday, 11:20 - 12:10
Track: Smart phones

The frameworks that Apple provides for iPhone/iPad development are great for creating GUI applications, but not really intended for creating games. Cocos2d-iPhone fills in the gap by making common 2D video game abstractions available in Objective-C, while rendering graphics with OpenGL behind the scenes. It also provides an application structure for your game to build on, and includes a physics library, audio playback and mixing, and more. Spend your time building your game, not infrastructure!

Prerequisites

Basic iPhone experience

Expectations

Learn what the Cocos2d-iPhone provides game developers, letting you focus on the unique aspects of your game instead of worry about the infrastructure.
