Chapter 3. Building Our First Game – Breakout

So far, we have gone through some important basics of programming in Lua and applied some code to run in the Corona simulator. Knowing the terminology is a small part of learning how to create an application. We'll need to take a step further and get some hands-on experience of what it's like to structure a project from start to finish. We're going to accomplish this by creating our first game from scratch. This will push you further to understand larger chunks of code and apply some game logic to create a functional game.
