   The authors are forum members and have put a lot of time and effort into creating these books, there are plenty of other resources if you don't want to purchase them.

   I can never get over just how cheap some people can be as well as how brazen they are in asking for 'free' stuff - as if they are somewhat entitled to it. Very likely @makboney has sourced Ray's book illegally already - perhaps a ban is in order?

   Google, heaps off hours coding and experimenting, heaps off patience, and the Coco2d Forum and their great platform.

   Don't think you will find much in a book really you cannot find above.

   10,000 hours and you will be an expert.

   I am at 1000. Long way to go. :)

   Wasn't til I got Ray's book that I knew anything about Parallax nodes and how they work & setup.

   So books are good for somethings. Also gives you a permanent reference, just incase you happen to lose your bookmarks.

    Both those books have purchasable ebook versions so its not hard to get hold of a copy as you just download it.

    If you mean you can't afford it or don't want to shell out your money then you probably can't afford to design games either.
