My first game creation. Part 1: The background

I stole this idea from a friend, I intend to keep a few guides in this blog that I and others may find useful for future reference.

The Game:

As part of my Applied Computing degree at Dundee University, I am required to design and build a 2D game.

I have settled on doing a 2D dungeon crawl type of game. The avatar will be moved around the dungeon and will collect keys to open doors to eventually attain the treasure chest and win the level. In the way are monsters and the player can only defeat them with the use of a potion.

The game is being build in C# using Visual Studio and the XNA libraries to help make things a little easier.

More to come...
