Thanks for the link. I was actually building a blog some time ago. One of the fonts that stuck with me was Vollkorn. It's a heavy serif typeface. While good for headlines, I wanted it for body text. It works best in bigger sizes (20px

I looked the slides for the first class. They looked fine, although the video is probably where all the meat is. But I was extremely dissapointed with your Resources slide. Reddit, Twitter and Indie Game the Movie? Where is "A Theory o

A* is not only a pathfinding algorithm, but a search algorithm. In my AI classes I used it for pathfinding, solving sudokus and other puzzles, and even to solve a job shop scheduling problem[1]. If you can translate your problem into a grap

Hum... I though the article was about something like the New Math[1] but... I actually learned math like that. (I'm from Portugal, and finished high-school around 10 years ago). Sincerely, I have no idea how the "old-fashioned way

I didn't know about Wtactics. Is it from the same devs? While I see the value of Wesnoth, it's not my kind of game. Now a constructed card game, that I enjoy! Browsing that website, I think the game rules should be easier to find.

Really cool! I might play with this a bit. Since tablets came around, I hoped games like this would appear. Everybody grabs their smartphone/tablet to play a game in a big screen. The tablet as a living room peripheral is an interestin

Laughter != mockery. From what I understand, someone helped the woman and then the laughter began. I assume the girl was uninjured by the experience. Laughter can ease up a tense situation. Cracking jokes helps generating that laughter. I

I sure wasn't expecting replies to my (angry) rant. To start, I later realised my tone was angrier than it should. For that, I apologise. The "out of the norm" comment really ticked me in a weird way. (I don't know why,

WTH? I'm not on Facebook, or any other kind of social network. I don't find myself to be "out of the norm". I don't need Facebook. In fact, nobody needs. I have the need to share what I do with everybody and I sur

I thought the *chan code was open. Or is this some critical bit? (I noticed it handles cookies, but I'm too unexperienced with web, php or web-security to explore this wall of code)

why? It's the game's name, and it says a lot. It looks like a tabletop wargame, and they are many times named like that. I believe it's usually because they focus on a single battle, a specific zone and/or a specific tim

Like other users said, it looks a bit cluttered. I think it's because Lato has very narrow lines. My (amateurish) suggestion is either a typeface with thicker lines or a taller typeface.

Typefaces are a new passion of mine. Wanting to start a blog, one of the things I focused were the presentation. I wanted something medium and svbtle like (big and serifed body typeface, clean and responsive design). I found here in HN the

Well, the harm is already done, but it's good to see Offline mode coming. But, to me, the most interesting news is the mod support. If you want to at least double your game's lifetime, make it easy to modify.

My old university has a big partnership with MIT, and the first programming course is, I believe, similar to MIT's. I learned programming with Scheme, in that course, in 2004. I used, without noticing, many techniques I would later hav

Not really. It's cosmology is weird. The universe is kind of a mutable thing full of "sentient force" (it's time travellers). When a paradox is formed, it's defense mechanism kicks in to eliminate the paradox. That

On a tangentially related note, the tabletop roleplaying game Continuum has, IMO, the most interesting description of time travel and a time travellers community. The premise is simple. What is the most logical thing for the first time trav

Great Work! I love games, so I'm really happy to see a kid so young designing game. Too bad I don't have any kids around to play this with. Does he have any thought on "fluff"? Ask him about the Legimons he created, what
