OpenGL Editorial Review

The 2nd edition of "Beginning C Game Programming: Learn to program with C by building fun games" has received mixed reviews. Some readers have criticized the book's outdated code samples, with one individual stating that they wasted $30 on the book due to the obsolete code repository on GitHub. The code samples are described as poorly written, leading some to question the integrity of the materials. The teaching approach, which heavily relies on a "copy what I do" method, has also been criticized, with one reader preferring a more interactive learning experience similar to Bjarne Stroustrup's book. Additionally, there are complaints about the complicated installation process and issues with the Zombie Shooter game. Concerns about the publisher's marketing tactics, specifically the lack of substantial preview content, have further detracted from the book's appeal. On a more positive note, some reviewers appreciated the step-by-step explanations for beginners, although one reader did note encountering a virus while downloading files from GitHub.
