Like games, but are don't know much about how they're created? Fear not! XNA is a game development platform based on the .NET Framework that helps to make developing 2D and 3D games for Windows and Xbox easy. Using the free XNA Game Studio 2.0, you can put those same C# skills that pay the bills by day to creating your own games by night (or whenever you'd like.) We'll introduce XNA, show you around the XNA world, then create a simple 2D game from scratch to give you a feel for the mechanics of XNA. This session requires no game development experience, only a passion for gaming and coding!
