Blood, Sweat, and Pixels

2017

by Jason Schreier

Blood, Sweat, and Pixels, by Jason Schreier, takes readers on a fascinating odyssey behind the scenes of video game development. It explores the artistic challenges, technical impossibilities, marketplace demands, and corporate obstacles involved in bringing any game to completion. The book documents the round-the-clock crunches, buggy-eyed burnout, and last-minute saves that are part of the development process.

From RPG studio Bioware's challenge to overcome technical nightmares to build Dragon Age: Inquisition, to indie developer Eric Barone's efforts to turn Stardew Valley into a multi-million-dollar franchise, and Bungie's creation of the Destiny universe, Schreier immerses readers in the hellfire of the development process. Blood, Sweat, and Pixels is ultimately a tribute to the dedicated diehards and unsung heroes who scale mountains of obstacles in their quests to create the best games imaginable.

She's taking rigorous survival courses, practicing politics, and spearheading relief missions to worlds under Imperial control.

But Leia has worries beyond her claim to the crown. Her parents, Breha and Bail, aren't acting like themselves lately; they are distant and preoccupied, seemingly more concerned with throwing dinner parties for their allies in the Senate than they are with their own daughter.

And when Leia discovers what her parents and their allies are planning behind closed doors, she finds herself facing what seems like an impossible choice; dedicate herself to the people of Alderaan—including the man she loves—or the galaxy at large, which is in desperate need of a rebel hero.

"As a heartless killing machine, I was a complete failure."

In a corporate-dominated spacefaring future, planetary missions must be approved and supplied by the Company. Exploratory teams are accompanied by Company-supplied security androids, for their own safety. But in a society where contracts are awarded to the lowest bidder, safety isn’t a primary concern.

On a distant planet, a team of scientists is conducting surface tests, shadowed by their Company-supplied ‘droid—a self-aware SecUnit that has hacked its own governor module, and refers to itself (though never out loud) as “Murderbot.” Scornful of humans, all it really wants is to be left alone long enough to figure out who it is. But when a neighboring mission goes dark, it's up to the scientists and their Murderbot to get to the truth.
