What would you recommend to start learning and applying BDD on a casual game development studio?
While I can’t speak to using BDD specifically with games, I can’t pass up the opportunity to introduce you to this excellent article:

One of my favorite overviews of BDD as a development methodology. Covers the process very well, and explains creating specifications via concern, context, and observations very nicely.
I also highly recommend using xUnit.NET and Moq as your testing platform (if you are lucky enough to be using .NET, that is). The following article provides an excellent specification-centric testing platform built on xUnit.NET, and follows the tennent of single-assertion-per-test-case very nicely:
