There is sooooo much in this book that it is hard to describe it; but I will try: * Development Cycle - all the usual "Best Practices" kinds of information. * Re-Factoring * Image handling * Game loop control * User input strategies and techniques * XML level development and processing ... and lots more ( :-) ) Obviously, there is lot which is missing ... but I am one buyer who is quite pleased with the 155 pages of value I have received for my $10!!! I only wish there was a follow-up book . sigh. This is a GREAT book! There is sooooo much in this book that it is hard to describe it; but I will try:
