Description

Improve your approach to game development with Psychology of Game Design by CRC Press. This book bridges the gap between design instinct and scientific evidence, presenting a unique dialog between commercial design interests and the study of player behavior. It provides a practical model that allows designers to achieve better results by combining historical references and personal experience with scientific data.
