How to go about creating a race track game? [closed]

Answer 1

I suggest you download AndEngine ( an open source 2d android game develoopmnent framework ). In the examples there is a (very simple) race track demo with a movable car + controls + obstacles. If you have troubles you can always get support from the forums

AndEngine has a very easy learning curve :-)
Have fun creating your racing game!!

Here are 2 good tutorials on starting with 2d:
- Canvas tutorial
- OpenGL tutorial

The last part, about showing only a part of the map, can be achieved by using a BoundCamera in AndEngine.
