Simple 2D Shadows Tutorial recognized

So this was a pleasant surprise.

My first XNA tutorial that I submitted to Ziggyware.com here and of course posted on this site here was recognized by Microsoft.

I know it's a small thing but it's those small things that encourage us to continue forging ahead.

Here is the link to MS's reference to my tutorial on 2D simple Shadows.  What I really like is I am categorized with other "Space Brains".

Congratulation!

It was a great tutorial for sure. As soon as I get some free time, I'll add it to my own engine.

Have a nice day Allan.

Boomwav,

Thanks. Any recognition no matter how small is nice.

So what did you think of latest game video?

By the way, I would love to see video of what you're doing.

That looks a very good and easy tutorial..Gonna try it this weekend.

Your way of explaining is very simplified.I hope we see more tutorials from you to be published soon.I suggest you start with a simple classic game,say Tetris? Could be a start of a very helpful series (as a matter of fact,there is NO complete XNA Tetris tutorial allover the internet!and the only book I've seen containing a Tetris tutorial is "professional XNA programming",which is,with all my due respect,not that simple(at least for me)..

I bet you read that article too: http://www.gamedev.net/reference/design/features/makegames/page2.asp

Good luck..
