After the Techdays conference I re-recorded the SunBurn demo I did due to a glitch that happened on the day (typical, always has to happen on a live demo), i’ve not even been able to replicate the conditions that happened on the day so I’ll chalk that one up to a meltdown.
Some time ago when I first started posting on XNA-UK (not my first posts ever, just when I joined XNA-UK), I focused on a very detailed 2D game development series.
Welcome to the conclusion of the original DigiPen tutorial, although fear not, this wont be the end of the series as we still have lots more to do.

Apologies, had to split the post do to some technical issues on teh XNA-UK site, were working hard to resolve that but fo rnow, here is the continuation of the Intermission 10 post.
2in the last intermission before getting back to the series we’re going to stay with the windows phone for now (the next part of the tutorial will start on the PW7 and then we will add the updates back to windows / XBOX, lets hope you can keep up)
Marty you gotta see this…. (whoops, back to the tutorial)
The title reflects that odd moment when you have added some new content to your project, you have been meticulous and double checked everything, it should be OK. But it is not.
Well it seems this week is full of surprises.
