Here for the first time, we will get to see what the Zune XNA team can do creating Zune games with their first release Alien Game! This is not only meant to be entertaining but also educational as there are many aspects of this game that you can use to incorporate into your own Zune games.
One the games download page there is a big push for downloaders to adopt the game for inspiration in developing their own titles:
Are you ready to start programming games for your Zune? All you need is the XNA Game Studio 3.0 CTP and any model of the Zune media device. Follow these instructions to get started with your first Zune game. Once you’ve done that, try our first Zune Mini-Game, Alien Game!
At the site, the Zune team has writing instructions walking potential programmers through the process for developing their own games for Zune.
As you can see from the photo up top, the game itself looks interesting and sports perhaps the best graphics we’ve seen a Zune game have thus far. You can download the game here.
As always, Be Cool my Babies…
