Hi!

I'm learning for windows phone 8, and i wanted to write an app where i can move an image using the accelerometer, not a level detector, i want it to move just like in labyrinth games. How would i make this happen? Does anyone have any good samples/turials/explainations or similar? I have been searching the web for two days now, trying to be integrating it. It will be used for a very simple learning-game for myself since i learn alot from samples. I have started my project as a normal app, since this is what i absolutely like to develop with, the UI design, etc, i have already created a basic UI, and also things the ball can collide into, things like arcs and stuff(controls). I am writing it in C#, i also got a little knowledge from java game development (not very much).

Thanks alot!

Microsoft gently provides "How to get data from the accelerometer sensor for Windows Phone"[^].
Once you are able to get accelerometer inputs, you should easily do a (rough) simulation the ball movement.
