Off-the-cuff and Off-the-wall! An eccentric collection of articles, essays, and science-fiction that begins with the insightful (or possibly insane) musings of propellerhead Rob Riser. What is a propellerhead? You’ll find out in 'Propellerheads-iconoclasts' (aka 'Pi'). From there, if you dare, move on to 'Einstein Was Light...er, Right?' and 'Don’t Let the Gravity Get You Down' followed by 'Tai Chi and the Science of Bowing a Fiddle' and 'The Selfless Ones.' Then, if your brain hasn’t exploded yet, you’ll be all set for 'The Robin Flies Again,' a shiny new space opera vignette from the warped imagination of author Mimi Riser (who’s still wondering what spawned the holoid). Sound strange? It is! But it’s all in good fun--a wild and wacky bunch of reading that’s sure to put a smile on your face and odd ideas in your head.

  • Speed Run
    H. M. Tamashiro
    O motivo inicial deste livro era desenvolver um curso de criação de jogos que começasse contando a sua história. Durante a pesquisa: a história dos jogos se entrelaçou com a história da evolução da vida; tornando impossível não fazer algo diferente e um pouco “mais completo”, só não esperava por algo tão complexo. O curso recebeu um “power up” e passou a ter como objetivo a div...
