CUSTOM GAME ENGINES: A Small Study

A couple of weeks ago I played (and finished) A Plague Tale, a game by Asobo Studio. I was really captivated by the game, not only by the beautiful graphics but also by the story and the locations in the game. I decided to investigate a bit about the game tech and I was surprised to see it was developed with a custom engine by a relatively small studio. I know there are some companies using custom engines but it's very difficult to find a detailed market study with that kind of information curated and updated. So this article.

Nowadays lots of companies choose engines like Unreal or Unity for their games (or that's what lot of people think) because d

# On slow systems, checking the cached .zcompdump file to see if it must be 
# regenerated adds a noticable delay to zsh startup.  This little hack restricts 
# it to once a day.  It should be pasted into your own completion file.
#
# The globbing is a little complicated here:
# - '#q' is an explicit glob qualifier that makes globbing work within zsh's [[ ]] construct.
# - 'N' makes the glob pattern evaluate to nothing when it doesn't match (rather than throw a globbing error)
# - '.' matches "regular files"
# - 'mh+24' matches files (or directories or whatever) that are older than 24 hours.

Falsehoods Programmers Believe About "Women In Tech"

• We have absolutely no idea what we're doing in tech. Please explain the utmost basic things to us.

• We only do web design. Our whole reason of being in tech is to make things pretty. Consider us the doilies of the industry.

• We're not laughing about your joke, so we clearly need you explain it to us. In great detail.

• We're only in tech to find a husband, boyfriend or generally to get laid.

If you've haven't seen it before, there is a cool accessibility feature in UITableView that allows the user to toggle between different actions. It's really very elegant and it's a powerful and convenient implementation for VoiceOver users on iOS. One could say that it's the VoiceOver version of the swipe-to-delete feature.

To try it out yourselves, open one of the built in apps like Mail or Notes and turn on VoiceOver. If you are afraid to accidentally delete some of your important notes or email, you can also create a new Master-Detail Application in Xcode and run it on your device. Navigate to one of the cells and use the "Rotor" (rotate with two fingers on the screen) to find the "Actions" item. Now you can swipe up and down do toggle between "Activate Item (default action)" and "Delete". If you now double tap, the cell gets deleted instead of selected.

This is the default behavior and you get this accessibility out of the box with UITableView.
