This book covers a TON of topics surrounding game development principles. I enjoyed chapter 2 in particular, as it covers how to write clean code for your video game project, following industry-standard coding principles (SRP, OCP, LSP, ISP, DIP) and refactoring techniques (DRY, KISS). If utilized correctly, these methods for writing code can make your video game and you as a developer truly stand out. Making a game is one thing, but if you write sloppy code and patchwork things together, it can seriously impact your games performance, which can really turn off players. I found the examples and diagrams super helpful as well, as I am more of a visual learner. Overall, I’m very happy with how this book was organized, as well as the depth and clarity in which it was written. This is a book that I will be returning to as a reference guide while continuing on my video game development journey!

As a game developer creating UI engaging and functional UI was kind of challenging at one point. This book broke it down and made it easy to understand. This book is a go to for all things game development. For me at least.

I enjoyed reading this book about Unity game development and C# in Unity. As someone who has used Unity for personal projects I found this book very informative it gave a great introduction into game design and project structure which can go a long way outside of the Unity game engine. My personal favorite chapter was chapter eight where the book goes over integrating external assets, Learning about API's in Unity, and using pre-Built Components with C# in Unity.

I enjoyed reading this and learning new things about Unity's game development and more about C#. My favorite part was reading about API interactions with Unity games because that is the chapter I was definitely most interested in. It's extremely detailed, down to the point of how you should organize and document your project. I think it's a great deal to buy this and learn what you can because Unity's game engine is very powerful, and this book just shows how much you can do with it in a way that is easily read.

This book is very insightful in game development, primarily with Unity and C#. This book highlights the importance of good practices such as organizing projects (including project planning), Writing clean and modular code, optimizing user interfaces, and many other vital core concepts. I particularly enjoyed that this book reinforces skills that make for a great programmer with Unity being its prime tool to showcase this. This book also covers various topics such as creating a save and load system which I found to be extremely helpful. Overall, this book is a great resource for those looking to get into game development and Unity. The structure of the book is also a great resource if you are looking for a curriculum style of format.
