You will learn by doing. First a brief crash course in Lua and Corona. Once this is done you will be thrown straight into creating fully functional complete games chapter by chapter. Certain chapters are reserved for adding advanced features such as multiple device integration, social networking and monetization. This book is for anyone who wants to have a go at creating commercially successfully games for Android and iOS. You don't need game development or programming experience.
This book got me started up and kicking in Corona SDK. I already knew most of the stuff in this book as I am an intermediate, But this book had some stuff I did not know. And also explained a lot of commands in great detail. I would rate 5 stars if I was a beginner. But as I am intermediate 4 should do!!
