Mobile game applications, while popular, are perhaps the most difficult type of mobile applications to develop. In this course, you will learn general game development techniques and then apply them to the Android development environment. You will cover topics critical to game programmers, including OpenGL, audio coding, animation, and asset optimization for Android, and you will create a complete game application.
