[QUOTE="Stormonu, post: 5817190, member: 52734"] Heh, that 80's book wouldn't have been "Creating Adventure Games on Your Computer" by Tim Hartnell would it? I've got a copy sitting up on my shelf :) Like you, I've been looking around for a book or other resource that would help me in programming something for the iPad. I did find a book, but it's a basic Objective-C book (Learning Objective-C 2.0: A Hands-On Guide by Robert Clair). I've also got a few books from the "Game Programming for Teens" line (despite being about 25-30 years past my teens...), but at best they are written in general C++ and focus more on making a game that a tool. They might be worth checking deeper into, however. Also, from what I understand, its practically impossible to do the programming without a Mac computer - I have not found an app that will let you code and assemble the program on a PC-compatible computer, and that has me flummoxxed as I can't afford a mac at the moment. Unless the Airplay SDK somehow lets you, which I haven't quite figured out yet. [/QUOTE]
