Game hackers turn games they like into games they love by adding custom cosmetic features, automating the boring aspects of gameplay, and simplifying complex mechanics. Game Hacking shows programmers how to develop a powerful and efficient bot from scratch, which they can use to automatically aim guns, cast healing spells, buy extra supplies, and more. Game Hacking covers the basics for readers with no hacking experience, like reverse engineering.
