Game Developer

Learn modern C++: the language behind game engines, browsers, and high-performance systems. Strong static types, manual control where you need it, an enormous standard library (STL). Every lesson is hands-on with real g++ execution.

Level up from C++ Fundamentals. Pointers in depth, dynamic memory, smart pointers, RAII, the Rule of Five, move semantics, templates, and exception safety. The features that turn working code into idiomatic modern C++.

Learn Lua: small, fast, embeddable. Powers Roblox, Neovim, World of Warcraft addons, OpenResty, and the Redis scripting layer. One data structure (the table) does the work of arrays, dicts, classes, and modules.

Level up from Lua Fundamentals. Metatables, OOP from primitives, modules, coroutines, error handling. The features that turn Lua's tiny core into a full programming environment.

Beyond Lua Intermediate. Closures and upvalues deep, weak tables, sandboxing, FFI patterns, the C API mental model. The features behind embedding Lua into Redis, Roblox, Neovim.

Learn C#: Microsoft's flagship language. Powers Unity games, ASP.NET web apps, Windows desktop, and increasingly cross-platform via .NET. Strongly typed with modern syntax — pattern matching, records, async/await, LINQ.

Level up from C# Fundamentals. Generics, LINQ in depth, async/await, properties, exceptions, value vs reference. The features you reach for in real C# code every day.

Build a Box2D-style 2D physics engine: vector math, semi-implicit Euler integration, AABB + circle collision, broad-phase via spatial hash + sweep-and-prune, SAT narrow-phase, impulse-based response with friction + restitution, distance + spring constraints, sleeping for stability.

Build a 3D renderer covering both rasterization and ray tracing: 3D vector + matrix math, transformation pipelines, edge function rasterization with z-buffer, Phong/PBR shading, ray-sphere/triangle/AABB intersections, BVH acceleration. Math + algorithms behind every modern game engine and film renderer.

Build an ECS-based game engine: fixed-timestep game loop, input + audio, Entity-Component-System architecture, system scheduling, event bus, sprite + animation rendering, scripting, and the architecture behind Unity, Unreal, Godot, Bevy.
