Epic SpriteKit Tutorial with Swift 3

09/21/2016: Updated to Xcode 8 and Swift 3!


Learn Apple's game engine called SpriteKit together with Swift. Along the way I'll introduce you to some programming concepts that make your code easier to write, read, re-use and will make your game more robust. 


Together we'll build an Endless Runner space themed game where the player must avoid meteors and pick up stars for bonus points. Fast paced games anyone can pick up an play are a great place to start your journey as a game developer. 


All you need is a Mac and a copy of Xcode downloaded for free from the Mac App Store. I have provided the rest. Let's get started.
