There are many ways to build mobile games, but for most projects you'll
find everything you need in the core SDK. Practice Android programming
while you learn to build a simple game app with the Android SDK and
JavaΓÇöno C++ or gaming engine required! This project showcases all of the
SDK's strengths, including clean, fluid motion; complex game mechanics;
and persistent scoring. David Gassner shows how to build the visuals,
including the background, menus, and controls, and add animation with the
built-in classes in Android. Then he helps you program the game logic.
Learn how to define different levels, increment and display scores, manage
game resources, and add audio effectsΓÇöboth longer music files with the
MediaPlayer component and shorter sound effects with Android's SoundPool
class. This project is a fun and rewarding way to learn Android
programming, and can be used as a template for your own game apps.
Topics include:
* Working with Java vs. C++
* Creating a new Android project
* Defining the visuals: background, menus, and animation
* Defining and managing levels
* Displaying scores
* Managing limited gaming resources
* Completing the game logic
* Adding audio effects
