Mix08 - Silverlight as a Gaming Platform

vectormark.gif This year Terralever has the great opportunity to present at Microsoft’s Mix 08 conference in Las Vegas, March 5-7th. Mix is an amazing conference that exposes the technology community to the latest on Silverlight, Internet Explorer, ASP.NET, Expression, Windows Live and other key technologies. The topic I will present on is “Silverlight as a Gaming Platform” and specifically our experience writing a game in Silverlight 2.
Abstract
“Come learn how Microsoft Silverlight was used to create Tunnel Trouble, an online game built using Silverlight 2. This session covers concepts of using Silverlight technologies and tools to build game boards, animations, collision logic, game loop logic, integrating media into game play as well as integrating with web services and being more efficient with managed code.”

I am very excited to represent Terralever in this opportunity. If your attending Mix, make sure to attend our break out session on Thursday March 6th at 4:15 PM in the San Polo 3501A room.
