Introduction

This website is intended as a guide for people who want to program games for One Laptop Per Child's XO computers, but don't know how to get started (i.e. game development newbies). You may not have vast amounts (if any) experience in programing games and you may have limited programing experience, but that doesn't mean you can't put in some effort and produce an XO game. If you're interested in programing games but don't know how to get started, I'm here to help you.

Communication

There will come a time when you need to ask questions. You may need to find out more about recently updated specifications or even someone to look over your code. Here are some ways to contact others in the OLCP game development community.

  • The Game Mailing List
    • If you are interested in talking to other OLPC game developers, communicating game ideas, etc, you should join this list anyway. If you are interested, there are lots of other lists to join, but as a newbie game developer, definitely consider the Games list.

Currently this website and this project is under construction. Questions? Comments? Please let me know at user:xocolatl.
