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

★★★★☆

I absolutely loved Game Animation Programming! It completely changed my perspective on Game Animation. At first I wasn't sure about Animation Programming, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Game Development 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 Computer Graphics. What I appreciated most was how the book made Animation Programming feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
