👈 Early Praise for Hands-on Rust | TOC | Preface 👉

This book would not have been possible without the patience, support, and love of my wife, -Mel Wolverson.

A huge “thank you” is owed to my parents — Robert Wolverson and Dawn McLaren. They introduced me to computers at a tender age, taught me basic programming, and put up with years of “look what I made.” They instilled in me a life-long love of learning and teaching.

I would also like to thank Erlend Sogge Heggen of the Amethyst Foundation for introducing me to The Pragmatic Bookshelf. The wonderful community in r/roguelikedev on Reddit persuaded me to return to game development many years ago, and continued to provide support throughout the development of this book. Special thanks are due to Josh Ge — author of Cogmind, and Brian Bucklew — of Caves of Qud fame — for encouraging the whole Roguelike development community. Thanks to Steve Cotterill for writing tips and being a great sounding board while I structured the book. Finally, Walter Pearce deserves special thanks for all of the Rust help they provided.

Kent Froeschle and Stephen Turner at iZones deserve acknowledgment for their continual encouragement and work schedule flexibility, patiently dealing with both a global pandemic and my writing schedule.

This book would not be what it is without the patient and thorough help of the tech reviewers: Bas Zalmstra, Josh Snaith, Vladyslav Batyrenko, Thomas Gillen, Remco Kuijper, Forest Anderson, Olivia Ifrim, and Jurgis Balciunas.

Finally, thank you to Tammy Coron — the editor — for her help and enthusiasm on this project, keeping me focused and shepherding me through the publishing process.
