I've been working with Game Design for over five years, and I still found valuable insights in Quickstart Guide to Game Design. The chapter on Programming particularly transformed how I approach my work. The examples are practical and the explanations are clear without being oversimplified.

Key takeaways from Quickstart Guide to Game Design

Posted by Jordan Wilson 16 hours ago

As a senior developer, I'm often skeptical of technical books, but Quickstart Guide to Game Design surprised me. The authors don't just explain how things work—they explain why they work that way, which is crucial for truly understanding these concepts. The sections on Beginner Coding are worth the price alone.
