Part III

Making Your First Game: Crazy Eights

In this part . . .

Part III gets you to start building your first game! I show you how to configure a view to behave the way you want it, and then how to load and render all the necessary images. You get the word on how to handle user interactivity to launch the play screen, and then you build all the working pieces of a functioning single-player card game. I even show you how to code a halfway decent computer opponent. In the end, voilá — you have your first complete Android game.
