Did you listen to the examples? The sample library is licensed from a third party, and sounds pretty good IMHO.

From committing to the idea to getting the position, a little over 5 years. I was working on a corporate ASP.Net site when in early 2009 I decided I wanted to be a game developer instead of pursuing my previous dream of being a musician. I

NYC is one of the only places in the country where it's feasible to live without a car (without major hassle). Edit: I guess my point was that from my experience visiting New York that's a city where public transit is so good that

You don't know that there's not a human being at the other end curating the list, do you? It's plausible that there's manual selection involved in each day's playlist.

A little more info for those who are curious: The perfect intervals (unison, 4th, 5th, 8ve) can be modified by being diminished or augmented, which shrinks or expands the interval by one half step. The other intervals (2nd, 3rd, 6th, 7th) c

There are (at least) three levels of development in a game: engine, gameplay, and content. Depending where you draw those lines, Unity gives you the engine and you provide the gameplay and content. It sounds like you're interested in j

But AR has the benefit of a built-in stable background with zero latency, which means that latency in e.g. head tracking might be a little distracting but won't result in VR's crippling nausea. Seems like that's one major pro

Depends what you mean by "real stuff" I guess. You could just as easily argue that musicians consider themselves composers because they read Fux. Counterpoint is important for certain styles of composition and irrelevant for other

There are two issues here. First, why use switch instead of a series of if-else, apart from compile-time completeness checks? Second, why include an empty default statement in a switch, apart from preventing compile-time completeness checks
