After all, somebody has to point out the obvious!

Yay, Tablet PC gaming is on the way!

Straight from Sean Campbell comes word of something very exciting:

"3 Leaf Development is putting together "Arcs of Fire".  A game for the Tablet PC.  In addition to the game we are also building out a Tablet PC Game SDK for Tablet game developers."

Check the website of the game - www.arcsoffire.com - for more (well, a little more) information, as well as forums. Based on the initial image, it looks like some sort of military ballistic missile game (makes you wonder, doesn't it).

The other bit of news is that the game is to be based on a forthcoming Tablet PC Game SDK. Very exciting, and I hope more developers will take advantage of such a tool. Pen-oriented games are definitely something in short supply on the tablet platform. I had heard of the rumored game SDK some time ago, and now it seems to be public. Maybe now that he's blogging, Frank could shed some light on it.

It's described briefly on the website I mentioned. Basically, a set of components to allow developers faster creation of games for the tablet platform.
