I Tried Game Dev and Got Ambushed by Maths
12 July 2026
What happened
- Game dev turned into a maths exam: vectors, magnitude, normalization, and rotators
- Went in dreading the maths — came out able to make things actually move
- Built little drones that chase a target using vector maths
- First taste of “AI”: objects that move toward a target and turn to face it
What’s next
Putting it all together into something you can actually call a game.
