well i am a newbie to game programming but have done some small projects using AndEngine... i hav read a book http://www.packtpub.com/torque-3d-game-development-cookbook/book and it helped me a lot in using AndEngine...but over time i have seen there are performance issues in AndEngine so i thought of trying libGDX... i wanted to know is there a book similar to the above one for starting to develope on libGDX ??? i have seen this => http://www.apress.com/9781430230427 and its next one written by mario, but how to use libGDX with android is no-where mentioned as they use the Android stack for development throughout the book. it would be greatly appreciated if anyone can guide me here on using libGDX...

Hi Connor,

Im also using Java with libGDX and in combination with the Artemis Entity Framework.

The way I learned to use it was to read the official wiki developer guide from the libGDX team:

https://code.google.com/p/libgdx/wiki/TableOfContents

There you can read almost everything on how to use graphics, audio, input and everything else.

I also oriented on a practical open source game which has been made with libGDX and the Artemis Framework

which can be found here:

https://code.google.com/p/spaceship-warrior/source/browse/

Best Regards

Olaf

Hi,
