Session Name:

iOS Games in a Day: Cocos 2D

Overview:

A one-day crash course in making iOS games. This daylong bootcamp will include enough specific technical and platform knowledge for attendees to either go away and start making their own iOS games, or to further understand the tools they are using. The day will be made up of a mix of discussion, deep dives, examples, and plenty of opportunities for audience Q&A. Session content will include an introduction to the iOS platform, crash courses in Cocos2d and Unity3d, popular/essential iOS APIs for games, and a deep-dive on game architecture selection and best practices.
