If you’re in search of a cutting-edge actionable guide to game design, your quest ends here! Immerse yourself in the fundamentals of game design with expert guidance from veterans with decades of game design experience across a variety of genres and platforms.
The second edition of this book remains dedicated to its original goal of helping you master the fundamentals of game design in a practical manner with the addition of some of the latest trends in game design and a whole lot of fresh, real-world examples from games of the current generation. This update brings a new chapter on games as a service, explaining the evolving role of the game designer and diving deeper into the design of games that are meant to be played forever. From conceptualizing a game idea, you’ll gradually move on to devising a design plan and adapting solutions from existing games, exploring the craft of producing original game mechanics, and eliminating anticipated design risks through testing. You’ll then be introduced to level design, interactive storytelling, user experience and accessibility.
By the end of this game design book, you’ll have learned how to wrap up a game ahead of its release date, work through the challenges of designing free-to-play games and games as a service, and significantly improve their quality through iteration, playtesting, and polishing.

    AI systems are designed and programmed to mimic human thought and behavior, making artificial intelligence an integral part of our daily lives. This technology impacts a wide range of services and experiences. 
  
For many, the most visible benefits of AI are seen in new gadgets and features, such as voice-activated assistants and facial recognition for unlocking devices. However, AI is also set to revolutionize other areas, such as healthcare. For example, hospitals in India are testing software that analyzes retinal images to detect diabetic retinopathy, a condition that is often diagnosed too late to prevent vision loss. In autonomous driving, AI helps vehicles understand and navigate their environments. AI is already embedded in many applications, from search algorithms to bionic limbs for the disabled.

    Quantum Mechanics is a strange but fundamental part of modern physics and we see the results of this theory with technology used in our daily lives. Quantum effects may also help to explain our consciousness and spiritual (paranormal) abilities. Quantum effects also lead to some very strange phenomena which seem impossible at first glance.Some of the main subjects discussed here include:•,Quantum Teleportation•,Quantum Computing•,Quantum Gravity•,Quantum Consciousness•,Our Consciousness wave function•,The MultiverseI also use the experiential knowledge from my prophecies and the research I’ve done on the paranormal to show potential links to quantum effects. The human ability to teleport psychically is one possible connection.There seems to be a coordination between quantum effects and spiritual abilities as described in the Yoga Sutras on Patanjali. Near the end of the book I make an effort to link quantum phenomena and consciousness together.
