29. System Support: Scaler & Orientation Write your game without worrying about native resolution or orientation Automatic rotation between portrait and landscape Touch automatically supports both scale and orientation changes Scaler can drastically improve performance Trade off performance for “crispness” & shade fewer pixels 800x480 = 384,000 pixels, 480x320 = 153,600 pixels Upsample an arbitrary back buffer to native device resolution Far higher quality than bilinear filtering Allows for easier porting from other platforms Scaling/Rotation comes for “free” from Hardware

44. Using Silverlight and the XNA Framework

45. 45 The XNA Framework Game Loop is layered on top of the Silverlight Application object on Windows phone 7 Series Provides the bulk of integration seen previously Most of the XNA Framework can be accessed from Silverlight applications Including Gamer Services (Xbox LIVE) In this release some sharing/composition is not complete, nor will be for XNA GS 4.0 Scenes using GraphicsDevice from XNA Framework and UIElements from Silverlight You’ll want to choose the technology that works best for your scenarios Bridging the Gap

46. 46 Graphics UI control heavy consider Silverlight Leverages vector graphics in XAML Silverlight is your only choice Media Rich video support consider Silverlight Tooling If you leverage Microsoft Blend in your pipeline, Silverlight is your only choice Leveraging the Right Technology

47. 47 Graphics For 3D graphics your only choice is the XNA Framework Game Loop Sprite heavy 2D applications should consider the XNA Framework Game Loop Simulation/Drawing Those who prefer a traditional update/draw/present frame loop should leverage the XNA Framework Game Loop Tooling Those who want to leverage the XNA Framework Content Pipeline graphics types Leveraging the Right Technology

48. Sum up Slide Powerful Productive Portable Great managed code games, working today Windows Phone provides a powerful platform for gaming Focus on being a game developer, not a plumber Great tools make you more productive Target more platforms easily Focus on your game differences, not the technology
