Red Blob Games is a great blog if you are interested in game development. The explanations are solid, they have at least pseudo code or an implementation for most of their posts, and they have great animations on a lot of their bigger posts to help build intuition.
- Barrin92 1y agoI remember one of the Advent of Code challenges had a hex grid puzzle on it, and Red Blob Games hex grid guide was so good the site got hugged to death because of it for a while. Used that later when I built a civ clone too, it's a fantastic resource. https://www.redblobgames.com/grids/hexagons/ https://www.redblobgames.com/grids/hexagons/

- lelandfe 1y agoI still remember a decade on the little pop of joy of realizing that not only do all the graphics on that blog post change when moving from flat to pointy, the code animates too. The interactive graphics evoke all the fun of being a child in a science museum.
- S0y 1y agoI came here to say the same thing. Red Blob Games is such a gold mine of resources for anyone looking to get into gamedev.
