Reading Advocate
Paper to Play in 20 Minutes offers a compelling take on Game Prototyping, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Creative Thinking is excellent, I found the sections on Game Mechanics less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Game Design that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Game Development more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Game Design will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Indie Game Development, if not the definitive work.
