  When Derek Yu released Spelunky for free in 2008, his roguelike-inspired platformer took the indie game community by storm with its combination of classic platform mechanics, extreme difficulty, and random level generation. Four years later, Spelunky's HD remake went on to become PC Gamer's Game of the Year and earn perfect scores from Polygon and Eurogamer. But how is a "perfect" game made? 
   
    
   
  Spelunky is Boss Fight's first autobiographical book: the story of a game's creation as told by its creator. Using his own game as a vehicle, Derek Yu discusses such wide-ranging topics as randomization, challenge, indifferent game worlds, player feedback, development team dynamics, and what's required to actually finish a game. Grab some ropes, a mattock, and your favorite pug—this book is going to dig deep.

  The Place Where You Go to Listen...

  Did Alaska create the music of John Luther Adams, or did the music create his Alaska? For the past thirty years, the vastness of Alaska has swept through the distant reaches of the composer's imagination and every corner of his compositions. In this new book Adams proposes an ideal of musical ecology, the philosophical foundation on which his largest, most complex musical work is based. This installation, also called The Place Where You Go to Listen, is a sound and light environment that gives voice to the cycles of sunlight and darkness, the phases of the moon, the seismic rhythms of the earth, and the dance of the aurora borealis. Adams describes this work as "a place for hearing the unheard music of the world around us." The book includes two seminal essays, the composer's journal telling the story of the day-to-day emergence of The Place, as well as musical notations, graphs and illustrations of geophysical phenomena.

  Summer, Year-Round… On the Moon is a gripping exploration of humanity’s boldest leap yet—creating life where none existed before. Combining cutting-edge science with visionary engineering, this book takes readers to the Moon, where builder bots and high-intensity heat generators transform the barren lunar surface into a thriving off-world resort. From extracting water and producing hydrogen to crafting tunnels and domes beneath the Moon’s crust, the narrative captures the awe and challenges of turning ambition into reality. As domes rise and oxygen flows, new questions emerge: What is the cost of taming a world that never belonged to us? Blending science fiction with real-world possibilities, the story highlights humanity’s resilience, ingenuity, and the delicate balance between progress and respect for the unknown. With themes of collaboration, survival, and the desire to thrive beyond Earth, Summer, Year-Round… On the Moon is a thrilling testament to both the power and fragility of human ambition.

  Tech Giants - The Companies...

  In just a few decades, a handful of tech companies have grown from humble beginnings into the most powerful corporations in the world. These tech giants—such as Apple, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta—didn’t just ride the wave of technological advancement; they created it. Their influence now extends far beyond the digital world, reshaping industries, economies, and even the way we live our everyday lives. 
  The journey began in garages and dorm rooms, where innovative minds dreamed big. Apple started in a California garage, Google in a Stanford dorm, and Amazon as an online bookstore. What these companies shared was a willingness to challenge existing norms and reimagine how technology could serve people. Their founders—visionaries like Steve Jobs, Larry Page, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg—helped pioneer bold ideas and new ways of thinking that forever changed the tech landscape.  
  Key moments in tech history marked pivotal shifts. The launch of the iPhone in 2007 revolutionized the way we interact with technology, putting the power of computing into our pockets. Google’s search engine transformed the internet into an organized, navigable space. Amazon redefined convenience with fast, efficient online shopping and then changed the game again with Amazon Web Services (AWS), a leader in cloud computing. Microsoft, once synonymous with desktop computing, adapted to lead in software, enterprise services, and gaming. Meta, originally Facebook, reshaped how we connect and share online.

  While the Western was dying a slow death across the cultural landscape, it was blazing back to life as a video game in the early twenty-first century. Rockstar Games' Red Dead franchise, beginning with Red Dead Revolver in 2004, has grown into one of the most critically acclaimed video game franchises of the twenty-first century. Red Dead Redemption: History, Myth, and Violence in the Video Game West offers a critical, interdisciplinary look at this cultural phenomenon at the intersection of game studies and American history. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on game studies, western history, American studies, and cultural studies, the authors train a wide-ranging, deeply informed analytic perspective on the Red Dead franchise—from its earliest incarnation to the latest, Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018). Their intersecting chapters put the series in the context of American history, culture, and contemporary media, with inquiries into issues of authenticity, realism, the meaning of play and commercial promotion, and the relationship between the game and the wider cultural iterations of the classic Western. The contributors also delve into the role the series' development has played in recent debates around working conditions in the gaming industry and gaming culture.
