Spherical Geometry Is Stranger Than Hyperbolic
- adenadel 6y agoHere's the game that the video creator has made based on these ideas https://store.steampowered.com/app/1256230/Hyperbolica/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/1256230/Hyperbolica/
- centimeter 6y agoI'm hoping for VR support!
- stared 6y agoSpeaking about games - I love HyperRogue: https://www.roguetemple.com/z/hyper/ https://www.roguetemple.com/z/hyper/.
- nimih 6y agoHyperRogue is a lot of fun and does a great job of making the non-standard geometry central & integral to the gameplay. The levels with "gravity" are particularly interesting to navigate and reason about, IMO.

- nayuki 6y agoHe has a cool video on how hyperbolic geometry is really big: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQo_S3yNa2w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQo_S3yNa2w
- ruytlm 6y agoAt 5:45[0] in that video, he makes a reference to one of the greatest weird explanations of video game things ever: the explanation[1] of how to beat the Watch for Rolling Rocks level in Super Mario 64 with only half an A-press, which is highly worth a watch if you like this stuff about geometry. And if that was interesting, I also recommend the history of any percent speed runs for Super Mario Sunshine.[2] [0]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQo_S3yNa2w&t=345 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQo_S3yNa2w&t=345 [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpk2tdsPh0A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpk2tdsPh0A [2]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oudZMniib08 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oudZMniib08
