description
This masterclass will dive deep into the Marmalade SDK, and provide a live demonstration of how to create a “Hello World” application. We’ll show how to create a project file, write plain C++, test x86 and ARM builds on the desktop, and then deploy simultaneously to iOS and Android. We’ll then progress to developing a simple 2D game, illustrating issues such as screen-size independence and support for multiple control schemes, and tracking performance metrics within the desktop Simulator.
