Recently I read Game Programming Patterns by Bob Nystrom. Written in a really conversational tone but still includes pseudo code outlining each pattern. Really enjoyed it.
Master's of Doom is a little over-reccomended in this category but for good reason. Feels like you're right there with Carmack and Romero as they build id. Another one I love.
- darkmatterrat 5y agoThanks for the recommendation.
- hermannj314 5y agoI also strongly recommend Game Programming Patterns. I have recently bought it and it has been very helpful for me. As an experienced developer, but new hobbyist game developer, the book has perfect content density - not too introductory nor too mind-numbingly academic.
- jpm48 5y agoI recommend this book to my students, Bob writes so well. His crafting interpreters book https://craftinginterpreters.com/ https://craftinginterpreters.com/ is also brilliant, I wish I could write so well.
