Hey! I've been learning how to make games for some time now, learning Unity and C#. I study in all sorts of courses, according to tutorials on the unity website, and everything seems to be cool, but I feel that I lack the structure of new knowledge. So, the question is:
Recommend books on game development! In general, everything :D At my main job, I have a whole lot of time for books. Only that in Russian it was possible to download-buy.
upd: guys, I don’t mean technical books, because there are a lot of materials in this regard, but rather books about game development, they say, what to pay attention to, about all sorts of game mechanics, game design and all that.

"Computer games - how it's done" - interviews with "fathers" about different aspects of game development. The book is old, but still relevant, contains a huge number of references to real experience.

Sorry, it's not in Russian, but without English you won't get far in IT anyway.

1. What courses do you study (links to the studio)?
2. C# - do you already know it well enough?
Maybe it's better to initially learn how to design a program architecture on it, rather than immediately understand it in Unity? I advise you to start with the C# code architecture without being tied to an IDE.
