Cocos2D-iPhone Xcode Template
I’m still researching how to get started with some game development on the iPhone and one of the articles I came across was a short tutorial detailing how to setup and start an application/game on the iPhone using the free cocos2d-iphone engine. Being the anal person I am, I couldn’t just refer to the article every time I wanted to start a new project, so I decided to research how to put together my own template for Xcode that would do all the dirty work necessary automatically. It turns out it’s quite easy to put together an Xcode template and what kind of good natured developer would I be if I didn’t share with the rest of the world?? I went ahead and created a new git repository with the template. To grab it, go ahead and follow these quick instructions..
cd /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/Library/Xcode/Project\ Templates/Application
git clone git://github.com/swemoney/xcode_cocos2d_iphone_app_template.git Cocos2D\ Based\ Application\ \(0.6.x\)Do that in any terminal and next time you start up xcode and try and create a new project, you should see a Cocos2D-Based Application options there that will give you the basic starting blocks for using the cocos2d engine.. Enjoy!
UPDATE: Now includes version 0.6.3 of Cocos2d-iphone as well as a menu scene.
