Make Class Library

Need to make the TileSpritesSample project into a class library.

Ideas:
- Classes: World, Tile, AnimatedSprite, Sprite, Camera, Player
- Use TDD in order to build modular, cohesive classes using single responsibility principle.

Game Dev Todo

Tile Engine

- Make display/viewport dimensions an exact multiple of tile size. Test.
- Use displaysize / 3 only when drawing animated sprites - not for world tiles.
- Get tiles to be loaded from a file.
- Add support for movement definition files to define where player can move.

Create Editor

- Create files to be used by TileEngine

To-Do

Check out www.ipodsoft.com - it has rss subscription support, outlook support, etc.

Automating iTunes via scripting, progamming:
http://dougscripts.com/itunes/itinfo/windowshelp.php

Would like to setup processes that run every night and can sync information from PC/Internet to the iPod that I can review at anytime:

- Weather (including radar images)
- Movie times
- Email
- Contacts
- Calendar
- Podcasts, music, videos

See if I can check email via my cell phone.

What other types of alerts or information can I get sent to my cell phone?

Look at creating a small application to take pictures off of camera. Another application to convert selected pictures to a format small enough to post the web or email.
