Setting up Your Game Project - Beginning iOS6 Games Development - page 12

Creating Your Game Project
To get things started with our sample game, we first have to create a new project in Xcode.
Create a new project by selecting File ➤ New ➤ New Project . . . . This will open a wizard that allows
you to select which type of project you want, as shown in Figure 2-2 .
Figure 2-2. Creating a new Single View Application
On the left side of Figure 2-2 , we have selected Application from the iOS section. On the right
are the available project types for creating iOS applications. The choices presented here help
developers by giving them a reasonable starting place for their applications. This is particularly
helpful for developers new to iOS, because these templates get you started for a number of
common application navigation styles. We are going to pick a Single View Application, because we
require only a very minimal starting point, and the Single View Application provides good support for
universal applications. After clicking Next, we see the options shown in Figure 2-3 .
