Abstract

In this chapter, you will lay out the framework for the Tick Tick game. Because of all the work you’ve done for the previous games, you can rely on a lot of preexisting classes. This means you already have a basic design for handling game states and settings, a hierarchy of game objects, and more. Note that the Tick Tick game is not designed to work on very small devices such as the older iPhones, nor the iPhone 6 Plus (for which you would need 3x resolution images anyway). If you run the game on older iPhones, a big part of the game world will be clipped. On the iPhone 6 Plus, the game is playable, but some black space will appear at the borders.
