How to win

Step 1: Follow me and Pluralsight on twitter.

Step 2: Watch my Introduction to 2D Game Programming with XNA course and/or my Cross Platform Game Development with MonoGame on Pluralsight and tweet about it.

Step 3: Create a game based on what you learned from the course.

Send me a zipped up version of your completed game and the top 3 games will win prizes! 

DO NOT SEND AN EXE! 

MAKE SURE YOU SEND THE SOURCE CODE!

You can send your submissions to me at john dot sonmez at gmail dot com.

Please make sure you do everything to qualify for the competition.  I want to be as fair as possible.  So, if you make an awesome game, but you didn’t follow the directions, I can’t award you the prize, I’ll have to give it to the next awesome game.

Winners will be announced by Dec 15th 2012.
