Microsoft Virtual Academy is hosting a series of Live Events that provide free tutorial sessions on multiple technologies including app and game development. The latest live event in this series, which is scheduled on September 11, 2014, is going to teach you how to port Unity Games to Windows Phone and Windows Store platforms.
This event is targeted towards developers who have existing unity games on iOS or Android platform and want to bring their game to the Windows Platform. According to Fortumo “If you have a cross-platform application, 10 percent of your users might be lost if you’re not porting your game to the Windows platform.”
This talk is being presented by Jaime Rodriguez (Principal Program Manager at Microsoft) and Mickey MacDonald (Microsoft Canada Technical Evangelist) and has the following course structure:
