Abstract
In this chapter, you’ll create a simple program that manipulates simple 2D graphics. By doing so, you’ll explore some relevant 2D game-creation concepts, such as the use of sprites and collision-detection algorithms. You’ll also see how to deal with user input in XNA. Finally, you’ll learn some basics of using audio in your games. By the end of this chapter, you’ll be ready to start creating 2D games.
