Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Generative AI has already changed how games get made. The question isn't whether to use it - it's whether you'll be the designer who knows how, or the one left explaining why you didn't adapt.Game Design in the AI Era is the practical, clear-eyed guide for designers who want real answers, not hype. Across 20 chapters, Anup Naik walks you through exactly how generative AI is reshaping every stage of production - from first-draft design documents and procedural level generation to AI-driven NPCs, adaptive difficulty, and narrative writing at scale - grounded in real tools, real studio data, and real legal cases, not speculation.This isn't a book that tells you AI will replace designers, and it isn't a book that pretends nothing has changed.
