About the Author
Raimondas Pupius is a game development enthusiast from Lithuania, currently working
towards getting a degree in software engineering, as well as a few projects of his own.
Having started his unofficial education in this field at the age of 9 and being introduced to
video games even prior to that has guided him to this particular career choice, which was
only strengthened by the experience earned from his first book “SFML Game Development
By Example”. The ultimate dream is, of course, starting a company of his own and making
professional games for a living. His other interests include web development, which was his
primary interest before game development, music and linguistics.
First, I would like to express my deepest thanks to Prachi Bisht for offering me the opportunity to
write another book and bringing me on board. In addition to that, I would like to thank Amrita
Noronha, Mamata Walkar, and all of the reviewing staff for being so great to work with and handling
the production duties.
Lastly, I would like to thank my mom, my grandmother and my beautiful wife, as well as her entire
family for showing me endless love and support throughout this entire ordeal. I wouldn’t be where I
am today without your kindness, understanding, and patience during my late night binge-writing.
This book is dedicated to you!
