Game Dev covers the craft and the tools behind building games, with a steady eye on where AI now fits into the pipeline. You will find practical walkthroughs, engine and workflow notes, and breakdowns of the techniques shaping modern games, from procedural generation and smarter NPC behavior to AI assisted art, code, and playtesting. The focus stays hands on and honest about what each tool does well and where it still falls short. It is built for developers who want to ship, whether they are working solo or on a team.
