My First XNA 3D Game - Space Ship

[ OLD VIDEO - CHECK THE NEW ONE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzYiIhxo8GY ]

The first "game" I made with XNA (the models are from different tutorials on the XNA website)
This game was made from the scratch.
Current features:
-Increase and decrease speed.
-Speed depends on the direction of the ship (rotation - it's kind of hard to notice tho...)
-Collisions with enemy ships using bounding spheres
-Score and high score that depends on the distance you do without getting hit

This is my very first XNA game, hope you like it...
It's not finished, I will add terrain or something like that, I will make the ship able to fire missiles, and of course... Sound!

Please comment and tell me how is it =)

Kind of reminds me how the Gummi ship used to move in Kingdom Hearts. Pretty cool, wished I could do that. Only thing I tried is using Riemer`s tutorials and I`m trying to learn....

[aldex123]

Get a book :D it always help ;)

[metallicafan003]

lol, this game looks like it could be addictive for a bit

[retrothomas]

Impressive! It will be great to see where you end up going with this. Is it just a project for learning? Do you plan to develop an Xbox community game for release?

[SuperJTutorials]

Where did you learn to make this??

I would recommend looking into these ones:

"Learning XNA 3.0" by Arron Reed

"XNA 3.0 Game Programming Recipes:A problem-solution approuch" by Riemer Grootjans

but since you wanted just C# I know of a great FREE online .pdf Ebook thats all about C#, The author did a great jon putting all together. I can't post the link here because of youtube :(

let me know and I will PM it to you.

or you could try googling "Rob Miles C# yellow book",it should be the first link.

enjoy :P

Well I don't know any C# books at all... I just read one about C++ and then surfed on the web to check the differences between both. It's pretty easy to get onto C# when you know C++

[nickrohn93]

what books do you recommend. general c# not particularly XNA. Since i have only coded console lol. But there pretty good :p
