7.  While games are all about fun, at the same time, they’re serious
business. With few free development books, you’re going to roll
up your sleeves and get your hands dirty with some hardcore
coding. While you may have written games before, but still think
about closely-
 Game graphics and animation
 Game audio
 Game networking
 Understand the game idea, create the game concept, game
design document and the interactive wireframe and UI flow
creation, define milestones, include game characters, character
design, level design and Android UI, develop Android game
prototype (core game mechanics, game play and Android game
programming using place holder art), develop game assets,
characters and levels, interface design, test the game, do final
build submission and finally Android store submission. You can
opt for Android SDK, Java, HTML5, AndEngine and Libgdx for
Android game programming packages, tools and platforms.

8.  When it comes to gaming application, Android
has gained huge amount of popularity as it
emerges as one of the widely used OS as a
gaming platform. Further, Android game
development offers media support for various
common audio, video and image formats that
include MPEG4, H.264, MP3, AAC, AMR, JPG, PNG

 As compare to other platforms, Android game
development is one of the best and excellent
options obtainable for users, who are looking to
get gaming application to have fun with their

9.  Using this platform, users can easily get numerous android games of
different categories such as action, racing, sports, dice & cards,
Hollywood, puzzle, mind games and many more. Each android user can
get his/her required game by hiring professional android game
developers, who has hands-on experience in developing creative
Android games.
 If you go with a professional android game developer, you can easily get
such game that you have in your mind as you just need to discuss your
projects requirements with the developer and he will develop a game

you should consider: lower-end devices like the “first generation”
devices, and high-end devices like the second generation”
devices. Though there are a lot of different Android phones on
the market, they fall rather neatly into these two classes when it
comes to CPU and graphics performance, which are the variables
that game developers usually care the most about.
 First generation devices are generally phones with HVGA screens,
running Android 1.5 or 1.6 (though a few are starting to make
their way to 2.1), typically with an 500mhz CPU and hardware
accelerated OpenGL ES 1.0 backend.
 Second generation devices generally have WVGA screens, much
faster CPUs and GPUs, and support for OpenGL ES 2.0. The
Nexus One and Verizon Droid by Motorola are both good
examples of this class. These devices seem to be about 5x faster
than the first generation devices when it comes to raw OpenGL
1.0 performance

11.  If you’re an Android app programmer who’s
thinking about getting into game
development, chances are you are planning
on writing code in Java. If you’re a game
development veteran who’s thinking of
bringing games to Android, it’s likely that you
prefer to do everything in C++.

12.  Different types of hardware supports
 Touch Screens
 Accelerometer
 Orientation
 Camera etc.
 General concept of game development
