Karan Sequeira is a budding game developer with 4 years of experience in the mobile game development industry. He started out as a JavaScript programmer, developing HTML5 games, and fell in love with C++ when he moved to Cocos2d-x. He has a handful of games on the iOS and Android app stores and is currently working for an organization in the in-flight entertainment industry. He is extremely passionate about learning new technologies and dreams about building an artificially intelligent super computer that can fall in love.

I am deeply grateful to the amazing folks at Packt Publishing, who presented me with a wonderful opportunity and supported me unceasingly. I owe a lot to the developers of Cocos2d-x and its ever-growing community of developers. But most of all, I am blessed to have a loving and encouraging family as well as friends who have been patient through all the times I've ditched them for this book.
