I am reading this book called “The Art of Game Design” by Jesse Schell. Today, I completed a few pages and read about:
Game balancing methodologies, balancing game economics: 10 types of Balancing Economics, and The Lens of Economy.

Coding

JavaScript:
Worked on project: Animal Attack, results are not meeting my expectations. I need work more on creating another animal and animate it. Learned creating custom functions and using it multiple times along with function parameters.
Computer science theory:
Unit 1, Intro to Algorithms: Learning about selection sorting and implementing them, this is getting tough for me i was not able to grasp all the info only by reading i have to refer a video tutorials because i am not able to solve exercises based on sorting.
