Don't Wait!: Build Retro Games and Level Up Your Skills offers a compelling take on Retro Games, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Programming is excellent, I found the sections on Beginner Game Design less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Beginner Game Design that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Beginner Game Design more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Game Design Basics will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Retro Gaming, if not the definitive work.

I absolutely loved Don't Wait!: Build Retro Games and Level Up Your Skills! It completely changed my perspective on Retro Games. At first I wasn't sure about Game Development, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Game Design Basics 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 Creative Coding. What I appreciated most was how the book made Programming feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
