Craig shared his story of fighting against cheaters and it was eye opening. There are lots of cheaters out there and it’s impossible to fight against them with technology alone. The best solution he provided is to track every action of the player and moderate it if the score is too high or suspicious.

For the presentation on Box2D, you can download the slides and source code here. Craig also mentioned CDK(Collision Detection Kit), a much easier package for collision handling, which makes much more sense to designers. Happy exploring!

Truly excited about Ari’s (http://pericraft.com) idea, we are going to have a special meeting this month. The focus of the meeting is “How Stuff Works”.

Basically it’s about bringing up your questions and discuss them together. Things like, how to do Augmented Reality (we’ve already covered that), how to do Yugop’s running text or, most frequently, how did they do this (or that you discovered during random browsing)?

If you see something interesting but can’t figure out how it works, share with us and hopefully, we can nail the solution.

Please post your questions on the Facebook event page and we’ll cover them during the meeting. If you are shy, you can also ask during the actual meeting.
