Why cant I load this file?

Prime b

You have to unzip it and try to run it.
When i try to run it , thats what i get

C:\Users\Alexander\Desktop\PaddleBattle\PaddleBattle\PaddleBattle\PaddleBattle.csproj : error : Unable to read the project file 'PaddleBattle.csproj'.
C:\Users\Alexander\Desktop\PaddleBattle\PaddleBattle\PaddleBattle\PaddleBattle.csproj(115,3): The imported project "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\Silverlight for Phone\v4.0\Microsoft.Silverlight.WindowsPhone71.Overrides.targets" was not found. Confirm that the path in the declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk.

All i wanna do is see how they made this app so I can have an example to follow

I wouldn't expect many answers from me on Windows Phone questions.

It's not something I know much about or have any interest in.

I'll grant you that mobile development is where the action is nowadays though it's just not my thing :)

Also, Android may be a better long term development opportunity than Windows Phone 8 though, currently, competition for the latter is not as fierce.

Sorry, I can't really help as I don't have the Windows Phone Developer Tools (all 3 GB of them) installed on my machine.

In fact, may be that's the problem - you don't have them either?

If not, they can be downloaded from here (Vista or later needed):
