Early Praise for Create Mobile Games with Corona
It’s straightforward, it’s thorough, and it walks new users through all of the basics.
I especially like how the book explains full game templates for popular genres in
an easy-to-understand way.

Brent Sorrentino, developer liaison at Corona Labs
I’ve wanted to make an iPhone game since the launch of the App Store, and now
I feel like I’m closer to my goal. The Corona SDK is a powerful tool, but good tuto-
rials are hard to find; I feel much more prepared having read Silvia’s book!

Stephen Orr, lead developer at Made Media
Looking for a way into programming mobile devices? What could be more fun
than making a game (or three)? Create Mobile Games with Corona inspired me to
get a little further with an idea I had for a mobile app, and Corona offers lots of
speed and versatility for creating such things.
