This book looks really interesting. I would like to read it and specially to get to know how to work with Box2d. I have an idea for a game and I would like to crack on to get it done.

Thanks!

I’ve played around with Cocos2D briefly in the past and always wanted to get back in to game writing.

The trouble is it’s hard to find a book that teaches by example.

This book looks like it solves that issue.

Plus, seeing as the world of game development is deeply rooted in C++ it seems like the perfect opportunity to teach myself and get some experience outside of Objective-C.

I’ve always wanted to learn Cocos 2D, but the fact that it was limitted to Objective-c was always a problem for me (no mac at home), I’d love to start using the c++ port

I’m very interested in the cross-platform development aspect of this book. After playing a little with the cocos2d-html5 version I’m excited to experiment with native mobile game development.

I want to learn how to develop the game. This book is a must to me as the air. I’ll be glad to get it. I’ll read it from beginning to end.

Compared to Cocos2D the one with X at the end offers more sweet options, if you ask my opinion. The number one to me is that I can use it on Windows, even though I understand that I have to switch to MacBook some day to become a serious iOS developer. The only problem until now was absence of a single source where all the necessary info could be obtained from to start coding games. Now we have this book – well, we want to have this book.
I already have a project to implement using Cocos2DX but it’s only the first one of many. And I want to devote those many games to my daughter and other little kids who will play my games. So I am not the only one who needs that book.

To me gamedev is the most challenging area where a programmer may apply his skills. And it’s also where the most fun is concentrated. Wrong – overconcentrated. I only study programming at the moment, but I want to end up in the gamedev niche some day. Why? See above.
If this book can teach me how to make cool games with cool effects, which can be easily ported to many platforms, isn’t it the suremost way to my dream?

What interests me about the book are the various game examples covered in each chapter, particularly the Victorian Rush Hour game. It would be nice to know how to develop these kinds of games using C++ and cocos2d-x.

I hope this book breaks the barrier in trying to learn the numerous CC-related classes and tricks/nuances/pitfalls related to understanding the framework (e.g., the use of release/retain).

I’m a cocos2d-iphone developer and i’m looking a cross platform framework. Known about cocos2d-x but never had time to check it out, so this book could be a good opportunity to start.
