{"product_id":"e-sports-kenwright-9798257075988","title":"E-Sports: Game Development and Design","description":"Most game development books are still stuck in the single-player, story-driven, \"player vs. AI\" mindset of a decade ago - focused on lush narratives and atmospheric exploration that nobody finishes. They'll teach you how to build a beautiful, empty world, then wish you luck finding an audience. This book isn't that! \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIf you're here to lovingly craft a walking simulator or a 40-hour RPG about a farmer's emotional baggage, put this down now. E-sports - Game Development and Design assumes you want to build for millions of hyper-competitive players who will break your mechanics before breakfast, optimize the fun out of your game by lunch, and demand ranked matchmaking by dinner. It won't hold your hand through character backstories - it will show you why your netcode, balance, and spectator tools matter more than your protagonist's tragic past. Other books help you make art. This one helps you make a sport.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kenwright\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798257075988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/12\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.34d","brand":"Kenwright","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50665431662847,"sku":"9798257075988","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_92120a0a-7a32-4318-9c15-bc8f9ea0f70f.jpg?v=1792011934","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/e-sports-kenwright-9798257075988","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
