Game Programming in C++: Creating 3D Games (Game Design)
Program 3D Games in C++: The #1 Language at Top Game Studios Worldwide

C++ remains the key language at many leading game development studios. Since itâ€™s used throughout their enormous code bases, studios use it to maintain and improve their games, and look for it constantly when hiring new developers. Game Programming in C++ is a practical, hands-on approach to programming 3D video games in C++. Modeled on Sanjay Madhavâ€™s game programming courses at USC, itâ€™s fun, easy, practical, hands-on, and complete.

Step by step, youâ€™ll learn to use C++ in all facets of real-world game programming, including 2D and 3D graphics, physics, AI, audio, user interfaces, and much more. Youâ€™ll hone real-world skills through practical exercises, and deepen your expertise through start-to-finish projects that grow in complexity as you build your skills. Throughout, Madhav pays special attention to demystifying the math that all professional game developers need to know.
- Set up your C++ development tools quickly, and get started
- Implement basic 2D graphics, game updates, vectors, and game physics
- Build more intelligent games with widely used AI algorithms
- Implement 3D graphics with OpenGL, shaders, matrices, and transformations
- Integrate and mix audio, including 3D positional audio
- Detect collisions of objects in a 3D environment
- Efficiently respond to player input
- Build user interfaces, including Head-Up Displays (HUDs)
- Improve graphics quality with anisotropic filtering and deferred shading
- Load and save levels and binary game data
Whether youâ€™re a working developer or a student with prior knowledge of C++ and data structures, Game Programming in C++ will prepare you to solve real problems with C++ in roles throughout the game development lifecycle. Youâ€™ll master the language that top studios are hiring forâ€”and thatâ€™s a proven route to success.
