There's a book from 2014 that's all about game programming patterns: https://www.amazon.com/Game-Programming-Patterns-Robert-Nyst...

I pulled it out recently and it still has its usefulnes.

I second Game Programming Patterns! I created a little indie game [1] using the design patterns mentioned in that book. Still not quite complete, (good) games are HARD, but even this small game would've fumbled into a mess of spaghetti if it weren't for what I learned from that book.

Oh cool. I actually have read his Crafting Interpreters book, but had no idea he did game design as well.

Probably exactly what I was looking for.

Thank you very much. :)
