О Ресурсах в Геймдизайне

Я недавно купил на распродаже Metro: Last Light для Switch за 1.5 евро. В игре много странных решений в отношении гейм-дизайна, но я решил поговорить об одном: о ресурсах, которыми распоряжается игрок. Любые ресурсы, которые выдаются игроку — это способ коммуникации геймдизайнера с ним, попытка объяснить, что и как стоит…

How I wasted $4k+ and half a year of my life to develop a game that earned only $30

Postmortem analysis of Drunk Shotgun It’s been nine months since the initial release of Drunk Shotgun for iOS and Android. I realize that I should have made a post-mortem analysis in two weeks after the game launch while my memories were fresh, but the game failed so hard that I was in a very fragile…

Why the 2021 Ducati Supersport will fail and what can be done to save it

When Ducati recently announced that they are going to present a new updated Supersport bike, I was excited. I’ve considered the previous (current) model but never bought one because of the strange design decisions and weird headlight aesthetics. I’ve opted for a 2017 Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX instead, which was the…

Bad API design — studying confusing AppsFlyer Server-to-server API

If you want to learn how not to design APIs, you can just look at the AppsFlyer’s server-to-server events API. The purpose of this API is to enable developers to send additional events about user behavior after they installed your app. Analyzing the API Okay, let’s see what we are expected to do…

Итоги 2019 года

Ну что ж, елка еще не наряжена, подарки не упакованы, скайрим на switch не докачался, а это значит что сейчас самое время подводить итоги 2019 года. В начале этого года я завершил работу в Pure, в котором в течение шести лет трудился на посту технического директора, и решил заняться самостоятельно…

Using Elastic Beanstalk with PyCharm/IDEA

Since there is no official working solution that lets you deploy your app to AWS with Elastic Beanstalk from IntelliJ IDEA (PyCharm/RubyMine/whatever), you’re stuck with using your console to deploy the project. Or are you? Actually not. Since EB CLI that you typically use for deployment via the terminal is…

Grouping objects in Unity

I am not sure why, but Unity does not provide an out-of-the-box solution for grouping objects in the scene — you cannot just select multiple GameObjects, right click on them and press Group.

When helmet drops

American bikers have a saying that I can really relate to. It goes like this: “Bullshit stops when helmet drops”. It basically means that you have to give up any thoughts that were running through your mind when you mount a motorbike (yup, I say “motorbike”, not “motorcycle” — I…

Casually walking through an airport

Punctuality has never been among my strongest traits. I tend to underestimate the travel time to the meeting or can just forget to get my outfit ready and end up being 10–15 minutes late with messed-up hair and non-matching clothes. Strangely enough, I’ve always show up at the airport early…
