Woohoo! Hook Shot took first place in the TeamZoneSports Silverlight Game Programming Contest!

I threw this game together fairly quickly using Visual Studio 2008, Silverlight Tools, Expression Blend, and the Farseer Physics Engine. Most of the media elements were drawn out by me in Blend, but I did use some public domain media from various sources, which you can read about here.

Andy,

Congratulations on first place man! I have been a developer for 12 years. I deal with mostly enterprise web applications. I want to get started on some games and was wondering would you recommend your resources or books or other sites to get started?
