Learn Game Development with Cocos2D
The Cocos2D for iPhone game engine is the premier 2D game engine for iOS and Mac OS X 2D game developers. It’s no secret that sometimes it can be a tough nut to crack. I’m Steffen, book author, blogger, game developer and nutcracker.
What is it that you want to know?
- Could Cocos2D be any easier?
It certainly can be, with Kobold2D! Without it, you’re hardcore. - Where can I find more advanced Cocos2D tutorials?
Read my iDevBlogADay articles, most of them Cocos2D tutorials on advanced subjects. - Is there source code for that?
Of course, it’s all in the LearnCocos2D github repository. - What if I like to hear your voice?
Uhm, if you don’t mind broken accents and the occasional incoherent rambling then listen to the Cocos2D Podcast with me and Mohammad Azam. (iTunes) - Where can I watch and learn about Cocos2D?
Check out the featured channels on the LearnCocos2D Youtube Channel and view my bi-weekly LearnCocosTV Show & Tell progress report. - Can I get an answer from you personally?
Certainly! You can get in touch with me on the Cocos2D Central forum or by asking a Cocos2D/Kobold2D question on Stackoverflow.com. - Where can I find more tutorializing Cocos2D devs like you?
Here’s a quick list: Ray Wenderlich, Mohammad Azam, Alex Curylo, Johann Döwa, Bucky Roberts, iPhoneGameTutorials and many more. - I wouldn’t mind spending a few $$$ for code and education, but where?
Try my Line-Drawing Starterkit source code, my Learn Cocos2D book and the various Affiliate Products I help to sell. - How can I support you?
Either buy any of my products because Learn Cocos2D and Kobold2D are my livelihood, or contribute to Kobold2D with your time, feedback and source code. - What’s your affiliation with Cocos2D?
Other than being a Cocos2D user, fan and critic: none. - Can I hire you?
Nope, sorry. I’ve converted to business ownership and got my hands full. Still waiting for that clone I ordered …
