    Is there an easier way to install your game on other computers.

    I'm currently considering a small project where I'd make a simple game for a company to use for training.

    I've looked around for how to publish the game, and it's getting to be rather frustrating.

    For an end user who might not even know what XNA is, Is there a way to play an XNA 3.0 game without making them install "strange program A" e.g. xna 3.0 distributable?

    In order to play any xna games on a pc your require 3 things. Directx 9.0c, Xna 3.1 distribution pack and the game itselft.

    Doesn't the ClickOnce publishing option take care of all that stuff for you?

    Users are used to an installer downloading/installing extra bits needed for the application. I believe that the ClickOnce publish makes an installer that does that.
