        Another great find, @toxibunny ! After reading the articles, I feel the urge to make an Outrun game!

        Maybe one day...

            @waldron very inspiring - like it
            21:33 "dream no small dreams" "go big or go home" -> additional interpretation: its ok to start many WIPs just because it could be cool ;-)
            29:02 "a game has a finite amount of resources" -> oh yeah, free-time, length of the night, he suggest to watch the scope and use "modular" principle: re-use wherever possible

              That sounds like an invitation for me to start yet another WIP. I haven't even posted here about my BurgerFuzion WIP :)

                            An article about different approaches to AI for your baddies and npcs. Gives a quick overview from the very simplest to stuff I had to skip past to avoid a headache. Good to get you thinking though :)

                                    Nice article about designing video games bosses. Since that is exactly what I'm doing at the moment, I found it very interesting...

                                          I have just found this page about making functions to play musical scales and chords. It walks you through it, beginning to end, full pseudocode.
