I am creating a game with a cartoonish theme, and I would like some advice as to what kind of sounds I should implement. The game I'm working on is a revamped version of pong (its not as simple as that though =D). Should I use realistic ping pong paddle/ball sounds, or maybe a boing sound when the ball hits the paddle to fit more with the ...

Hello all, I started a while ago my first project, and I currently have a few levels of the game working. I have a few questions.

thanks that was very helpful

Im still learning to use XNA but i can't understand how to animate a 2D sprite other than to rotate/scale it. How will I animate it?

hello, I just finished all of the XNA tutorials and I think that I am ready to start my first (basic) game. I am also going to be away from my home for about 1 month and a half and i may or may not have internet access the whole time. I wish to start a 2D game with maybe a few 3d (or at least 3D looking) items in the game. So now my ...

I was just looking on the web for some tutorials and I came across a tutorial that said "Making a game in XNA 3.0 and Game Studio Express" What is the difference between the two? Thanks

I heard i have to make ...
