Hello everyone!
This is my first attempt at a complete C++11 game development tutorial.

In about 40 minutes we will create an arkanoid/breakout clone from scratch, using the Standard Library and SFML 2.1, an amazing easy-to-use library that handles GFX, SFX and input.

You can find SFML 2.1 here: http://sfml-dev.org/

The intended audience for this tutorial/screencast are people who have some experience with C++ in general.

We will analyze the entire code for a primitive version of Arkanoid/Breakout, divided in 9 executable segments.

As this is my first time doing a complete game development tutorial screencast, I greatly appreciate comments and criticism, and ideas for future videos/tutorials.

Also, feel free to fork the game's source code at
https://github.com/SuperV1234/Tutorials
and expand upon it: I will feature the best forks in a future video :)

Thanks for watching!
