For a simple UDP protocol example, see
packet-xyplex.c

Print this dissector on hardcopy and use it as an example for your protocol.

Also study the READMEs down in doc
You might want to study how FT_UINT[8|16|32] works
and how to use proto_tree_add_item().

Give it a go and post your result on the dev list.
