11-8 Meeting: Intro to XNA and Unreal Dev Kit
At tomorrow’s meeting, Jay and I will be presenting a brief intro to two of the most popular and accessible tools for student and independent game development: Microsoft’s XNA, and Epic’s Unreal Development Kit.
We’ll create a simple two room level using the Unreal Editor, and a very basic game using XNA. This is not going to be an in depth tutorial or workshop; rather our goal is to introduce some of the less experienced members to these tools, and show how to get started with them.
So if you’re interested in using either of these technologies for your projects, or in the future, but aren’t sure how to get going, be sure to make this meeting.
