## What it is
A visual study path (chart in SVG/PDF/PNG) by Milo Yip mapping the books and skills a game programmer should acquire, from basics to game engine architecture. The repository contains the source to build the chart with Graphviz and translations.

## Use cases
- find books to learn game programming
- roadmap for becoming a game developer
- what should a game programmer study
- game engine architecture learning path
- curated reading list for game development

## When to choose
- you want a curated, visual reading path for game programming
- you need a shareable chart of game dev learning resources

## When to avoid
- you want interactive courses or tutorials rather than a book list
- you need actual game engine code or libraries

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: documentation, developer-tools
- domain: tutorials, awesome-lists
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: study-path, game-programming, books, roadmap, graphviz, game-development
