About the Author

Stephen Haney has written two books on iOS game development. He began his programming journey at the age of 8 years on a dusty, ancient laptop using BASIC. He has been fascinated with building software and games ever since. Now well versed in multiple languages, he enjoys programming as a creative outlet the most. He believes that indie game development is an art form-- an amazing combination of visual, auditory, and psychological challenges--rewarding to both the player and the creator.

He enjoyed writing this book and sincerely hopes that it directly furthers your career or hobby.

關於作者

Stephen Haney已經撰寫了兩本關於iOS遊戲開發的書籍。他在8歲時開始了他的編程之旅，當時他使用BASIC在一台古老的筆記本電腦上進行編程。從那時起，他對構建軟件和遊戲一直充滿著熱情。現在他精通多種語言，最喜歡將編程作為一種創造性的出口。他認為獨立遊戲開發是一種藝術形式，結合了視覺、聽覺和心理上的挑戰，對玩家和創作者都具有回報。

他喜歡寫這本書，並真誠地希望它能直接促進您的職業或愛好。
