Accelerate your Rust development with reusable libraries, and build a game development toolkit that helps you quickly create games using the Bevy Engine. Improve your code with testing, benchmarking, and optimization. Unlock Rust's trait and generic metaprogramming systems to develop code that adapts to fit your needs. Customize libraries with feature flags, and customize language syntax with macros. Master concurrency with threads and asynchronous programming. Structure your programs with reusable state management, menus, user interface elements, and asset management. Quickly build games with reusable physics and collision detection. Make your games pop with animations, particles, and rendering tricks, including parallax layering.

Accelerate your Rust development with intermediate to advanced concepts. Build reusable libraries; unleash generics, traits, macros, and more as you level up your Rust skills. Apply your skills to build a game development toolkit that helps you quickly build 2D games without reinventing the wheel when you start a new project.

Each chapter in this book includes hands-on, practical development using intermediate through advanced Rust. Make learning fun by building games as you apply language concepts. Develop several games and build the tools you need to unleash your creativity or apply the concepts to your own Rust projects.

This book is the ideal follow-up to take the skills you gained in Hands-on Rust to the next level - or it can be read stand-alone once you've mastered basic Rust.

What You Need:

Rust is an exciting new programming language combining the power of C with memory safety, fearless concurrency, and productivity boosters - and what better way to learn than by making games. Each chapter in this book presents hands-on, practical projects ranging from "Hello, World" to building a full dungeon crawler game. With this book, you''ll learn game development skills applicable to other engines, including Unity and Unreal.

Rust is an exciting programming language combining the power of C with memory safety, fearless concurrency, and productivity boosters. With Rust, you have a shiny new playground where your game ideas can flourish.

Each chapter in this book presents hands-on, practical projects that take you on a journey from "Hello, World" to building a full dungeon crawler game. Start by setting up Rust and getting comfortable with your development environment. Learn the language basics with practical examples as you make your own version of Flappy Bird. Discover what it takes to randomly generate dungeons and populate them with monsters as you build a complete dungeon crawl game. Run game systems concurrently for high-performance and fast game-play, while retaining the ability to debug your program. Unleash your creativity with magical items, tougher monsters, and intricate dungeon design. Add layered graphics and polish your game with style.

What You Need:

The Rust programming language is consistent and does its best to avoid surprising the programmer. Like all languages, though, Rust still has its quirks. But these quirks present a teaching opportunity. In this book, you''ll work through a series of brain teasers that will challenge your understanding of Rust. By understanding the gaps in your knowledge, you can become better at what you do and avoid mistakes. Many of the teasers in this book come from the author''s own experience creating software. Others derive from commonly asked questions in the Rust community. Regardless of their origin, these brain teasers are fun, and let''s face it: who doesn''t love a good puzzle, right?

What better way to exercise your brain and increase your Rust programming knowledge than with a collection of dynamic brain teasers? As you read through each of these puzzles and try to work out the answers, you''ll not only learn about Rust''s unique quirks and peculiarities, you''ll also have loads of fun along the way.

Dive right in and get started with example code and sample problems that cover numbers and text, shadowing and memory, and everything in between. Try to figure out why a particular program won''t compile, why it produces unexpected output, or why it panics and terminates with an error message. Once you''ve run the code and read the answer, it''s time to get to the heart of the matter with a detailed explanation. Learn why a program produced the result it did, and discover how similar issues might affect the code you write in your own programs, even in production. Sourced from engaging discussions within the Rust community, real-world problems, and even reader feedback, these challenges will certainly surprise, enlighten, and entertain you.

Are you ready to experience Rust like never before? Then sharpen your brain and get ready for a challenge!
