Hooray for the Rules of Play and Game Feel shoutouts. Those are absolutely fantastic books.
I kind of want to read Game Feel. This is the second time they've mentioned it.
It's very designer-oriented and somewhat math heavy, but it's also pretty great at dissecting how games generate a sensation when played. Things like "floaty" controls, "soft" versus "hard" hit detection, that sort of thing.
