How I created my game for the Ludum Dare 52 - In this blog post I will share how I experienced the jam and some of the technical details of the game I made.

1500 Archers on a 28.8: Network Programming in Age of Empires and Beyond - In Age of Empires the time to complete each simulation step varies greatly: the rendering time changes if the user is watching units, scrolling, or sitting over unexplored terrain, and large paths or strategic planning by the AI made the game turn fluctuate fairly wildly. A few quick calculations show that passing even a small set of data about the units, and attempting to update it in real time would severely limit the number of units and objects interacting with the player. Just passing X and Y coordinates, status, action, facing and damage would limit us to 250 moving units in the game at the most. We wanted to devastate a Greek city with catapults, archers, and warriors on one side while it was being besieged from the sea with triremes. Clearly, another approach was needed.

Lazy and once-only C# async initialization - There are a couple of closely related optimizations that are often useful: lazy initialization, and "just once" initialization. These are conceptually pretty straightforward, although the details can get messy once multiple threads are involved. But what if the initialization work involves asynchronous operation?

Procedural Wrinkles - Something that we wanted to have since early in the production were wrinkle maps that would best be triggered automatically using tension maps on the deformed mesh and ideally these wrinkle maps would even be fully procedural and omni-directional.

How I Made My Roguelike Game Replayable - Part 2 of our month long video game experiment. Today, we are going to work on adding replayability to our game. We will try to answer the question: Why do some games hook players into coming back day after day, season after season, while other games are dead days after release?

Transform Changes Debugger API - This tool will enable you to view and debug changes to position/rotation/scale on any transform done by any method/setter on a frame by frame basis.
It'll will work with code that executes changes via property setters (eg Transform.position = newValue) but also more complex methods (eg Transform.Rotate(1f, 230f, 15f, Space.Self)).
Changes can be originating from any assembly - not only your code but also 3rd party libraries or Unity assemblies.
