Interesting but I found some errors and misleading points in the book you should look into.
On one of the opening pages you write that 80% of FPSC users don't think it can be used for commercial development. You make that claim as if it is was fact but it's really just a guess. You can't do that if you want to be taken serious. You could write that you estimated the number or simply remove it.
You write that one should play as a player and not a maker of the game so errors can be found. Why not just advice a game maker to have some testers from your target audience? Using yourself, family and very close friends is the worst thing you can do for your game since you are blind to your own mistakes and family and friend never will be totally honest with you and rarely fit the target group.
You write that LUCK is king when you need to publish anything. Even that in the movie industry where you write it means everything. That is rubbish. Luck is just your explanation for the things you didn’t understand in the situations you described. Personal relations, networking, hard work and effort and usually marketing tactics combined with a nice budget makes a success. Luck has nothing to do with it and claiming luck to be the source of success will make serious business people turn their back on you.
You advise people to use 72 dpi instead of 300 dpi for textures. That is crazy
DPI settings only count when you produce graphics for print. For screen graphics (as textures are) you only need to worry about pixel size. Textures should measure in sizes like 128x128, 256x256, 512x512 and the higher it gets the more processing time and memory is required. So that should be the point of your advice.
You also advice that the more animated a webpage is made the more action a site visitor will take – thereby implying that they will probably also buy more. You are entitled to your own opinion but I simply can’t disagree more. Animated websites were popular more than a decade ago when people had little idea of how to create useful websites on this new thing called the internet. Look at Steam, Amazon or almost any major digital download service or online shop today. They are rock solid and not animated.
On the bottom of page 17 you are missing the word “play” in “… when you play the game”.
Running my latest game superbly on FPSC and Project Blue Mod.
