SpriteDraggerX

A minimal cocos2d-x iPhone / iPad project illustrating how to drag a sprite around the screen.

Setup

SpriteDraggerX uses RapidGame's prebuilt Cocos2D-X libraries. Make sure you have Node and Git, then:

sudo npm install rapidgame -g
rapidgame prebuild
cd SpriteDraggerX
rm lib
rapidgame init .

This will symlink a lib folder to RapidGame's prebuilt headers and libraries. You'll then be able to compile and run SpriteDraggerX.

Topics

If you'd like to learn more about creating a complete game, then check out the free Cocos2D-X book at WizardFu.com.

Topics covered in the SpriteDraggerX source code:

• Writing a minimal app delegate class to handle creating the window and GL view
• Receiving touch events from Cocos2D-X and translating them into dragging a sprite around the screen
• Animating the sprite via runAction
• Director, Scene, Sprite, ColorLayer, Sequence, ScaleBy

Notes:

• Includes an Xcode project
• Objective C is required to initialize iOS (App.h & App.mm)
• All other code is pure C++
