I have been working on Android for a few months. Now i want to jump to gaming in Android. So are there any resources, ebooks, or tutorial where I can study game development be it 2D or 3D.
Thanks.

A:
It's a long and not easy road. Start from 2D graphics by making some simple animations on images, try making a simple game. Check API for 2D and 3D graphics .
Here're some useful links

I just wanna add my blog. There are two tutorial series, one for 2D: http://www.droidnova.com/playing-with-graphics-in-android-part-i,147.html (ends in a pretty simple game) and one for 3D: http://www.droidnova.com/android-3d-game-tutorial-part-i,312.html
