Okay, I was on my computer today and I was going through one of the search browsers looking for new open world games and I came across a sandbox game and I don't know if I can share the picture because I got deleted on another one that I shared from Sony so I don't want to post it and then have this all taken out. Maybe after I make this then I'll make another comment and I'll post a picture. But basically someone made a game called Rob run and it goes across an area. Kind of like on GTA V and you do all the things that you do in the online world on there except for where you can get it and play it. It's free and most of us go on there. I don't know what I'm allowed to say and I'm not going to say what it is by name. I'm just going to say that it's a place that we can buy the games at discount price and play streaming off of their services and it doesn't matter if it's Xbox or Playstation and sandbox games. Anyways, this is an open world game. It looks identical to the PS5 with upgrades of more things you can do than you could do on the original game and they change the name to Rob run which is what I am trying to tell you guys. I know there's enough intelligent people that read this that can make a day's gone 2 without calling it that and if it was playing on the video people would know what it was. You don't have to keep the same look. I can change my character and days gone to look like Daryl if I want to from The walking Dead so it doesn't have to look identical. It can look somewhat like Deacon. Anyways, I just thought I would throw that out there for you guys and look online for the game I'm talking about. I'm not going to put any links or anything like that to it because I don't know what I can and can't put in here without it being removed. I hope I haven't stepped over to bounds already. Like I said I put a picture that I took off of a game that I was playing and because it was on Sony it was flagged and removed and I don't want this removed because I want this game and I don't care how I get it because I know there's enough intelligent people out there that don't work for these Damon industries and aren't sellouts and I know that you can do it all of you that that designing and games. I know that you're capable of creating a game together and making money and I promise you people will buy it because the reason I think that the original one didn't sell so good is because it was going through covid. It came out at a very bad time and Sony doesn't look at it like that. They don't care about that but that's a big factor and so so I just think that if they would have held off a couple more years they would have gotten that sales that they wanted and we would be getting a part 2 from them. Every pitch that they've gotten from Bend studios have been shut down after they've given them the green light. So I know you guys can put a sandbox together. That would make it look like the game and a lot of us would pay for it. I know I sure as hell would even if it was $60 like PlayStation 5 games are I don't care. I paid $100 for the the GTA 6 and now I heard that when it gets down to the 18-hour line it's got going to be stuck. I don't know what's going to happen anyways. That part was neither here nor there. It was just a point. My point to you guys is use your brains. You're all very intelligent people and the ones that make these video games and make cheats for them and things like that are able to crack them. I know you can do this and if you did you would make a lot of bank and I would be helping you because I would damn sure buy it. Anyways, I hope this gets to the right people and the right people read it because I want to play a part 2 and if Sony doesn't want to have part of it, you can always make it yourself and change the name. And there's lots of names that you can use that match a name like Deacon Saint John. If you know what I'm saying there's lots of names in the Bible that would work

We have reached an important stage in the development of Synvector - we have finalized the prototype and are now preparing it for the first test. We will try to open access to it on October 25-30.

At the first stage, we don't just want to open the game to everyone at once, but to test it in several waves.:

100 players → 200 players → 300 more players.

This way we can gradually collect and analyze feedback and see how the impression of the game changes after making the first changes. It's still a prototype, so it's not even a big part of the game. But we are just interested in getting your opinion before we go further in the development.

If you want to try Synvector on your own, stay tuned. We will start issuing the first accesses to the playtest soon. 🚀

I go through how I separate general updates from physics updates, why I use a fixed timestep, how the accumulator works, and what happens when the simulation starts falling behind.

I explain the reasoning behind the design decisions and why I rejected the alternatives. I show the implementation of the loop.

Air pollution is often represented through numbers, maps, or indicators, but it can also become… a game mechanic. 🎮

In a Medium article, I explore how video games represent air quality.

From SimCity to Cities: Skylines II, through Frostpunk 2, Super Mario 64, Metal Gear Solid, Factorio, and Minecraft, air pollution can take many different forms: it can involve trade-offs between urban development and pollution, become an area the player has to avoid, or even turn into a constraint the player has to protect themselves against.

Video games therefore offer simplified representations of complex phenomena, while also making the consequences of air pollution and the choices it can lead to more visible.

Had an idea for a game called 200000000 BC basically a human surviving during the dinosaur age.

Think Skyrim + Minecraft-style survival, but you’re building bases, gathering food, and genetically creating your own dinosaurs(using AI) to raise into an army. Explore with friends, raid other bases, tackle huge dungeons and boss fights, and eventually take your dinos to other planets.

Would you play something like this? What would you add or change?

I explain rotations and quaternions. I then implement the latter into my physics engine by replacing the matrix version of angular velocity code with a quaternion version. I then benchmark the results.
