Beginning Android Tablet Games Programming shows how to quickly and easily set up an Android development environment in no time at all, you'll be programming away. You'll begin with some simple games using sprites and choreographed movement. Next, you'll learn how to handle user input in the modern age of touch screens and motion. Along the way, you'll discover how to use that extra screen space on a tablet to provide more relaxed and more interesting user interactions in your games.
