Description

In this course we, present some basic algorithms, their mathematical background, and some of the physical principles underlying to enable the audience to develop a small game physics engine on their own. Topics cover time-stepping approaches, collision detection, collision handling, runtime optimisation, and more - classical simulation topics, but from the games point of view. The course consists of dedicated talks, short programming sessions, and, of course, playing - with predefined software components and algorithms implemented by the audience.;
