Sadly, most people trying to earn a living playing video games focus on becoming professional gamers, which is a short-lived career lacking in long-term prospects. If achieving financial freedom by following your passion for gaming is your goal, you have to be able to build a loyal following and then monetize it. As someone with over a decade of work experience in the gaming industry, I've seen no more than 100 content creators that succeeded and are now living the life of their dreams, compared to the thousands who failed.

Getting Gamers will show that rather than being a waste of time, video games can help us develop skills, make friends, succeed at work, form good habits, and be happy. Taking the time to learn what's happening in our heads as we play and shop allows us to approach games and gaming communities on our own terms and get more out of them. With examples from the games themselves, Jamie Madigan offers a fuller understanding of the impact of games on our psychology and the influence of psychology on our games.

Python coding is not something you can read about while relaxing on the couch. This book is for those that are ready to start working right away to write your own codes. I do not recommend this book if you are the type of person who listens to a book once and never opens it again because you think you have mastered the book's technical contents. Tech books are different from novels and other non-fiction books. They demand more than merely one listen. Buy this book if you have made up your mind to listen and practice it again and again.
