I thought it would be nice to have a page for learning resources. I raided my bookmarks bar and added a few links. Please add links for good learning resources. You can also add new categories, e.g Game Engines etc; don't be too specific though.

When adding hyperlinks, please follow the following format:
Articles & Tutorials

Subject

Website or Author

Books

Title or Name

Also please order the links alphabetically.

This page has already been created. Perhaps you can add your links to it HERE to merge the two pages?

Games published by our own members! Check 'em out!

They're not specifically learning resources. These are learning resources in the form of tutorials, articles, books and useful websites. The reason I decided to create a wiki page for this was because it can often be hard to find good, relevant information, and as a beginner I found it hard to find good resources to learn from. Thus, the aim is to try and get people to contribute to this page, which will hopefully help people who are either starting out, or just simply searching for useful information.

Edit: Thanks for cleaning it up.

Great for maths! Really detailed explanations with in game examples so you actually know what the power of maths is!
