Java GAME programming for dummies.

This book doesnt teach you java.However if you know some java but not how to create a game, you will find this book usefull. Thou the games described are simple, they do teach you the basics of 2D (and some 3D) game programming.If you remember some mathematics it helps but is not needed.Most of the formulas used are well explained.This makes it easy to write the same games in other languages like C,C++,basic.... I am a litle...

The focus of the book is game design. Those who program in other languages can benefit from the book after familiarizing...

An excellent resource for game programming since it goes deep into the explaination of game design, game development, and down-to-earth explainations of the example code. The only gripe about this book is that you really do need some basic...

Not bad...

The book covers standard topics from computer science connected with Game Programming (physics modelling, 3D geometry...) and their Java/object oriented implementations. The book is well organized and has lots of examples and instant code on the CD. However, this book doesn't fit in standard "for Dummies" concept since previous Java knowledge/experience is a must. The authors tried to help a little bit putting additional...
