Microsoft's Silverlight web presentation technology has become extremely popular during the two years since its launch and is projected to rival Flash's dominance in the marketplace within the next six to twelve months. Today, over half the games on the web are Flash-based. As Silverlight adoption grows it follows that more and more developers will begin choosing it as their language of choice for game creation.

Pro Game Design with Silverlight 4 gives developers a detailed explanation of how to build games using the Silverlight technology and provides them with a fully-working game engine that they can use as the basis for their own efforts. This will be the first book of its kind written for the Silverlight 4 technology.
