Summary
Loading data from external files is an extremely useful tool in programming games. This chapter enabled our game to do this and applied it to all of our existing states. We also covered how the use of factories enabled us to create objects dynamically at runtime. The next chapter will cover even more data-driven design as well as tile maps so that we can really decouple our game and allow it to use external sources rather than hardcoded values.
