Hello World
Hello World in XNA 3.0 using spritefont. We'll revisit the spritefont when we build the console/debug class
Simple 2D texture demo
Simple xna project that draws a pacman sprite
- Start a new XNA Project
Add two variable declarations at the top of the class
Texture2D PacMan;
Vector2 PacManLoc;
In the LoadContent Function add the following code to initialize the two variables declared above
protected override void LoadContent()
{
// Create a new SpriteBatch, which can be used to draw textures.
spriteBatch = new SpriteBatch(GraphicsDevice);
// TODO: use this.Content to load your game content here
PacMan = Content.Load<texture2d>("pacmanSingle");
PacManLoc = new Vector2(graphics.GraphicsDevice.Viewport.Width / 2, graphics.GraphicsDevice.Viewport.Height / 2);
}
- Add the following code to the Draw Method to Draw the texture
protected override void Draw(GameTime gameTime)
{
graphics.GraphicsDevice.Clear(Color.CornflowerBlue);
// TODO: Add your drawing code here
spriteBatch.Begin();
spriteBatch.Draw(PacMan, PacManLoc, Color.White);
spriteBatch.End();
base.Draw(gameTime);
}
pacman image is availble here: 
the full game1.cs file should look like

the build of the game will look like
