Tangent: the novel "Tomorrow, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow" by Gabrielle Zevin is a well-written book about a fictional video game studio. I'm not a game designer but it went into a fair amount of detail and seemed pretty authentic. Curious if others here have read it and can comment.
- jhbadger 2y agoAnother similar novel which I liked is Austin Grossman's You (bad title, I know), also about a fictional game studio in the 1980s and 1990s.
- chrisweekly 2y agoCool, thanks, will check it out.
- jaaron 2y agoGame developer here. Read Zevin's book. As expected, some parts are spot on, some are wildly off, but within the industry there is also a wide range of experiences. If you want to learn more about actual game development stories, I recommend Blood, Sweat, and Pixels: https://www.harpercollins.com/products/blood-sweat-and-pixels-jason-schreier?variant=32122042744866 https://www.harpercollins.com/products/blood-sweat-and-pixel...
