I don’t know of any C++ game dev books myself, but if game dev in Swift or Rust interests you there’s @Paradox927’s #book-apple-game-frameworks-and-technologies and @herbert’s #book-hands-on-rust …and they’re both very active in their book forums here on Devtalk :nerd_face:

hey :slightly_smiling_face: I already have @herbert 's book purchased in Beta stages last year. Recently started learning C++ for some different reasons.

My main objective to learning gamedev is I enjoy it and makes my learning new language alot more fun.

Hello, this is Gulshan Negi
Well, in my opinion, dedication, practice, and a love of making games are necessary for game development. You can use C++ to bring your game concepts to life and advance in your game development journey with perseverance and a mindset of continuous learning.
Thanks
