How does this book work?

Making games has this amazing advantage that you immediately see the result of the code you just wrote move before your eyes. This is the reason why everything you learn in this book will directly be applied to some practical examples. In this chapter, we will write a small game together inspired by the classic Frogger. In the following chapters, we will then make a platformer and a role playing game (RPG).

I really encourage you to write your own version of the games presented here and modify the code provided to see the effects it has. There is no better way of learning than to get your hands dirty!
