I absolutely loved QuickStart Guide to Game Physics! It completely changed my perspective on Game Physics. At first I wasn't sure about Gravity, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Computers & Technology 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 Rigid Body Simulation. What I appreciated most was how the book made Game Development feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!

QuickStart Guide to Game Physics offers a compelling take on Game Physics, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Simulation & Modeling is excellent, I found the sections on Game Physics less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Game Development that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Programming more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Unity will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Simulation & Modeling, if not the definitive work.
