I've been working with UE4 since april on a personal project of mine (fps). While there are layers of abstraction over all of this that I enjoy, I debate really how important it is for me as a game developer to worry about them. In the

I am not great at higher level Math (calculus) and I'm good with algebra but I do not think I'd consider those good predictors. I feel like what allows me to program is strong spatial reasoning. Doing a quick google search I found

I really liked the idea that if you can subtly rotate the player you can use breaking forces to simulate acceleration. I imagine an entire roller coaster hooked to the same simulation so that you can all participate in firing cannons with y

DK1&2 owner here, I really don't see how the metaverse is better than our current metaphor of browsers/webpages when it comes to sharing information? We already exist in the 3D world and we invented the web browser to make inf

I've had this thought before. I feel like if you changed the mechanism of donating to PACs to only be drawn if a goal is reached (like kickstarter) you'd have much more engagement. No one wants to donate a dollar if they feel like

Ctrl+F'd in this thread for "eye strain" to see if anyone else reports oddly having more eye strain from using a retina screen. I used a 15" macbook pro retina for 2 years pretty much 8 hours a day and noticed my eye sig
