Great gift
I bought this book for my son and he loved it. He told me everything that he learned from this book. Unfortunately, I am not as interested in gaming as he is! I loved hearing his excitement though and he really had a great time reading this book.

As someone who's always been intrigued by the world of coding but never quite had the courage to take the plunge, stumbling upon "Code Gamers Development: Lua Essentials" felt like fate. The audiobook held the promise of turning coding novices like me into game creators – a prospect that was both exhilarating and daunting.

What truly stood out was the audiobook's approach to coding itself. The author skillfully navigated through the technical intricacies, ensuring that I never felt overwhelmed by a barrage of code. Instead, it was a step-by-step journey, building my skills one concept at a time. The "black screen" of code turned into a canvas of possibilities, and every line I typed felt like a brushstroke on the masterpiece I was creating.
