The graphics shown are to test features and will not be featured in the final game.

Development Software

I'm developing this game in Visual C# Express Edition 2005 SP1.
With XNA V1.0 Refresh.

I've purchased the XNA Creators Club on the Xbox 360 for dev/testing of the game.

Currently, the game is running on the 360 full screen on my HDTV.

All tools are written in C# too, but in Visual Studio .NET 2005 Standard Edition. I have written libraries so both the game and tools utilise both.

Tools written so far:-

World Editor: placing background blocks and enemies.
Screen (Title) Editor: creating menus and overlays.
