Want to become an App/Mobile Games Developer

SirPrize · 03-15-2013, 11:10 AM

Hi guys,

I've got some great ideas for mobile games (one really good one in particular) and would like to pursue this in my spare time.

But I don't know what languages I need to learn, what platforms I need to develop on or anything like that.

Is there a dummies guide or anything?

This may be of assistance to you: https://developer.apple.com/

Developing mobile applications for Apple is one of the best ways to get your game noticed as they dominate the mobile market.

In second would be the Android I believe with Google's market place.

For Android devices you'll need to learn Java, for iOS (Apple) devices you'll need to learn Objective-C, and for Windows Phone/Win8/WinRT I *think* you need to learn C++. Don't quote me on that one though. Or you could learn HTML5, CSS, and Javascript and your app/game will work across multiple devices without the need to re-code it.
