Game Programming Patterns is a collection of patterns I found in games that make code cleaner, easier to understand, and faster. This is the book I wish I had when I started making games, and now I want you to have it. It’s available in four formats:

Game Programming Patterns tackles that exact problem. Based on years of experience in shipped AAA titles, this book collects proven patterns to untangle and optimize your game, organized as independent recipes so you can pick just the patterns you need.
That’s why our free e-book, Level up your code with game programming patterns, explains well-known design patterns and shares practical examples for using them in your Unity project. Written by internal and external Unity experts, the e-book is a resource that can help expand your developer’s toolbox and accelerate your project’s success.
Game Programming Patterns - Awesome book, entirely free online. Hey guys, I got this book the other day because it looked interesting and I'm really enjoying it so far. It covers design patterns in games both conceptually and functionally.
By implementing common game programming design patterns in your Unity project, you can efficiently build and maintain a clean, organized, and readable codebase, which in turn, creates a solid foundation for scaling your game, development team, and business.
“Swapping out” sounds a lot like assigning a variable, so we need an object that we can use to represent a game action. Enter: the Command pattern. We define a base class that represents a triggerable game command:
Game loops are the quintessential example of a “game programming pattern”. Almost every game has one, no two are exactly alike, and relatively few programs outside of games use them. To see how they’re useful, let’s take a quick trip down memory lane.
