Tempted to do an art pass as a break but really next is probably better map generation, more resource/economy stuff, then starting on progression.

really enjoyed this; it's part history, part design manifesto, part instruction manual. The first half is a lot of history and a bit dated/overly expository but when she gets into the why and how of making games it remains very relevant
