I absolutely loved How To Write Retro Games: Web-Programming! It completely changed my perspective on programming. At first I wasn't sure about programming, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains JavaScript is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in Programming. What I appreciated most was how the book made Computers & Technology feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!

How To Write Retro Games: Web-Programming offers a compelling take on programming, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Books is excellent, I found the sections on Books less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about JavaScript that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing ai more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for javascript will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on programming, if not the definitive work.
