What is this

Ludo Atlas is a Chinese-first, open-source knowledge base for game development: it breaks "making games" into parallel tracks — from getting started and the core disciplines, to per-genre workflows, engine tracks, production pipelines, publishing and business, and pitfalls and postmortems. Every external link is verified one by one, and policy, pricing and platform-rule content carries the date it was last checked.

The story and organizing principles behind the project are in the Preface. The English edition covers the whole library; newly added pages fall back to the Chinese original until translated.
