This is part of the package of Game Tutorials threads, for which a complete listing of threads can be found in The Table Of Contents.
Let's make some games!
Continuing from the thoughts expressed in the thread Basic Game Programming, let's start exploring the process of Java game programming.
My idea is to collectively develop some simple games while learning about program design and development processes. I hope to eventually incorporate unit testing and other extreme programming practices in our process, though we won't be implementing them just yet as I want to maitain a focus on simple programs and the beginning programmer.
The plan is to begin with very simple games. To this end, my suggestion is Tic Tac Toe.
Suggestions for organization of threads:
Main threads that are part of this package of discussions will begin with "Game Tutorials -->>". New threads to discuss some specific aspect of a project should refer back to the main game tutorial thread in consideration with a linked reference.
Next, let's discuss the development process that we could use.
