XNA 4.0 Game Development by Example Beginner's Guide

About the Author

Kurt Jaegers is a database administrator by day, and a long-time hobbyist game developer, having built games for everything from the Commodore 64 to the Xbox 360. He is the owner of xnaresources.com, one of the earliest XNA-focused tutorial websites.

I would like to thank my wife Linda for proofreading the earliest versions of this book, as well as my brother Jason for providing the graphics for Flood Control, Asteroid Belt Assault, and the map tiles for Gemstone Hunter, along with the title screens for all of the games.

I would also like to thank the team at Packt Publishing for guiding me through my first book-authoring experience.
