Abstract

Developing games on Android has its pros and cons. You should be aware of these pros and cons before you begin. First, Android games are developed in Java, but it is not full Java. Many of the packages that you may have used in past Java development are included in the Android SDK; but some packages that are helpful to game developers, especially 3D game developers, are not included. So not every package that you may have relied on to build previous games will be available to you in Android. This is, of course, assuming you have tried Java game development in some capacity already. If this is your first exposure to game development concepts in any language, you may be at an advantage because you won—t have that mental crutch of relying on packages that may not even be available for Android.
