The correct spelling is actually Silverlight. And there's nothing to stop you from implementing games using Silverlight. If anything i would imagine it lends itself even better to game development given the ease of use of primitives like animation, geometry, etc. You can even already get pretty functional physics libraries On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 3:08 PM, The Ice Man <aki275@googlemail.com> wrote:
Hey people on SilverLight in KE
About 2-3 weeks ago, the game dev journey led me to SilverLight4 as a platform so I bought some ebooks to read on while with no impact on changing course. Anyway, while looking at the pre-requisites of SilverLight4, it seems to fully understand it, I'll be going through asp.net, ajax, xml, sql, java, atom etc. which takes me away from possible game dev and into possible web dev. A big positive is that I can finally consider implementing my content, portal ideas and sites which have been lying idle for a while. Its a long road ahead and if anyone has some exposure on SilverLight platform your adv would be appreciated. I've googled ( and msdn too ) everyting I needed to get started so am pretty comfortable there but it'd be nice to hear from those on the platform already.
Else, catchup soon. :-)
