So, in all honesty – it’s going pretty slow. Partially because I have so many distractions going on right now, but also because there’s a good learning curve when learning Objective C when coming from PHP – mainly in the syntax. I do feel like I’ve made some great progress so far though. I’ve been learning a lot of the basics when setting up a game as well as just a general application. Hopefully I’ll have something to show for it soon. I’ve also had the realization that there aren’t enough tutorials – and the ones that are out there are usually just replications of other tutorials that exist.
Furthermore, I’ve been frustrated to find that a few books I would love to read reference deprecated methods (specifically thinking of cocos2d here). Have I mentioned I’m playing with cocos2d? Actually, I haven’t. Cocos2d is a 2d game engine for iPhone/iPad. It’s free to use and seems to have a great community of developers – though I haven’t gotten up the guts to post my questions yet for fear of ridicule at my newbness, haha.
Well, enough about that – hope to show off what I’ve been working on soon and have an app in the app store within the next 2 months. Thanks for reading!
