![]() Tencent’s first product was a paging software called “Open ICQ.” Tencent’s unoriginal product was a success but faced trademark challenges ![]() But taking big bets and capitalizing on promising new opportunities laid the foundations for its future massive growth. Tencent’s first steps were uncertain, facing significant challenges with no support. In its early days, it jumped on enormous opportunities extremely early and pioneered monetization strategies. Tencent was founded in Shenzhen in 1998 by Ma Huateng (also known as Pony Ma), Tony Zhang Zhidong, Xu Chenye, Chen Yidan, and Zeng Liqing. Humble Beginnings: How did Tencent start? Owns 20 principal subsidiaries as of December 2021 with stakes in hundreds of companies.Over 1.24 billion users in Tencent’s WeChat.Market cap of $271,54B as of November 3, 2022.Ma Huateng (Pony Ma), Tencent’s co-founder, CEO and Chairman of the Board Tencent’s market share and key statistics: Ma Huateng, Tencent’s co-founder, current CEO and Chairman of the Board, owns a little over 10% with Tony Zhang, co-founder and current advisor emeritus. It is the world’s largest company, in terms of investment, in the video game industry. It operates in the technology and entertainment industries with a strong focus on video games and multimedia. is a Chinese conglomerate and holding company with headquarters in Shenzhen.

Best of all, these segments are never one-offs, so you’re building skills that can be used in more difficult, stressful scenarios later on. I particularly enjoyed the flying and shooting segments because they required me to make quick decisions. There’s a lot of variety here: you’ll fly shuttles, fire phasers, command the Resolute from the bridge, solve engineering puzzles, scan things with your tricorder, and sneak around hostile environments, and nearly all of it is engaging and feels like what we should be doing in a Star Trek game. Of course, all of those dialogue options and moral dilemmas are broken up by Resurgence’s moment-to-moment action, which is respectable. But the lack of meaningful consequences made them feel like filler in hindsight. ![]() I don’t regret the choices I made they were set up extremely well and emotionally effective when I made them. Later on, the group’s leader thanked me for my choice – and then didn’t really appear again, even when it would have made sense for them to do so. ![]() The decision felt awful (in a good way) – there was no good choice – but I did what I thought was right and what the character I was playing would do. Ultimately, I had to choose between gravely injuring one of my crew members and potentially sacrificing that group. In one extreme example I was sent to rescue a group of people by beaming them away from impending disaster. That’s inevitable in a game like Resurgence – the story has to continue no matter what you do – but it never feels good when it happens. Sometimes, you’ll make what feels like an important decision only to realize later that it didn’t matter much. That said, I do wish the consequences of certain choices had more effect on the story. Better still, I felt I understood Jara and Carter more because I had just as much time to work through the issues as they did. ![]() The timer was fast enough to make me think on my feet but not so overwhelming that I felt paralyzed by indecision. Sometimes it’s fast and sometimes it’s slow, but you have to respond – or not, but choosing not to decide is a choice in and of itself.I never felt rushed during big moments, but I knew I had to be decisive – and so did the characters I was controlling. You’ll have to make these choices quickly, too, because you’re on a timer. How well you do as Carter affects what happens to the ship, but the decisions you make as Jara affect Carter if something goes wrong. In one early scene, Carter is out on the ship’s hull repairing a critical system, while Jara is on the bridge. Jara and Carter rarely directly interact with one another but both of them play important roles in the story, and Dramatic Labs does a good job showing how the decisions made by one of them can impact the other. ![]() It gives you a better idea of the stakes for everyone aboard – problems apply to more than the folks on the bridge, who knew! – and makes scenarios more exciting. Other times it means rerouting power to a critical system or taking a spacewalk to repair the Resolute. Sometimes, that means giving orders from the bridge or leading an away team. The perspective effectively bounces between Jara and Carter depending on the situation. ![]() From delicate fairy lights that mimic the subtle glow of the night sky to chic Edison bulb or globe string lights that are ideal for lighting up your al.

Glenn tries to soothe me but fails, and the female AI repeatedly chides me angrily for not dreaming correctly. I am accompanied by voices as I descend into a dream world, including the affable but unhelpful Dr. As I go deeper into the dream and the world becomes less logical, I paradoxically feel more constricted, not less. I’m moving from segmented level to level trying to figure out what the game wants me to do, instead of having fun with everything that I’ve been shown is possible. This often makes Superliminal feel like Portal. You can’t make everything bigger or smaller, and there are doors every so often that block you from bringing your useful soda cans, exit signs, or chess pieces into the next level. The problem is that Superliminal isn’t a sandbox it’s a puzzle game. It feels like a magic trick, but one that I control. I spend my first hour or so with the game making boxes bigger and then smaller again while chuckling to myself. The key mechanicĮverything comes down to the idea of tampering with reality through the use of perspective, which is legitimately very neat. It sounds soothing, right up until it becomes clear that something, somewhere, has gone wrong, and I’m stuck inside a dream that very quickly begins to feel like a nightmare. I don’t know who I am, but I’m clearly here to test a program and learn something in the process. You see, I’m in a therapy session conducted via dreams. It’s not about what’s real, it’s about what looks real. Portraits, seen in the right way, can become doorways to another environment. I can pick it up as if it were a physical object, and now it’s in my hands. If I stand just right, the block looks real. Later, I find an orange block painted on the walls. This is the key mechanic of Superliminal. However, when I turn and place the soda at the end of the hall, I’ve played a clever trick I can now walk towards the soda can to find its grown to a massive size. When I hold the soda in my hands, it’s quite small. I stand in the hallway of a quiet medical facility, and grab a can of soda from a vending machine. Superliminal is a puzzle game in which perception is reality. ![]() Change in velocity is directly proportional to time when acceleration is constant. ![]() The longer the acceleration, the greater the change in velocity. The relation between velocity and time is a simple one during uniformly accelerated, straight-line motion. As long as you are consistent within a problem, it doesn't matter. Some problems are easier to understand and solve, however, when one direction is chosen positive over another. The laws of physics are isotropic that is, they are independent of the orientation of the coordinate system. Determining which direction is positive and which is negative is entirely arbitrary. Since we are dealing with motion in a straight line, direction will be indicated by sign - positive quantities point one way, while negative quantities point the opposite way. In this order, they are also often called the first, second, and third equations of motion, but there is no compelling reason to learn these names. There are three ways to pair them up: velocity-time, position-time, and velocity-position. Our goal in this section then, is to derive new equations that can be used to describe the motion of an object in terms of its three kinematic variables: velocity ( v), position ( s), and time ( t). It is such a useful technique that we will use it over and over again. This is the way things get done in physics. Approximating real situations with models based on ideal situations is not considered cheating. (You can't drive diagonally on a road and hope to stay on it for long.) In this regard, it is not unlike motion restricted to a straight line. A road might twist and turn and explore all sorts of directions, but the cars driving on it have only one degree of freedom - the freedom to drive in one direction or the opposite direction. Motion along a curved path may be considered effectively one-dimensional if there is only one degree of freedom for the objects involved. So what good is this section then? Well, in many instances, it is useful to assume that an object did or will travel along a path that is essentially straight and with an acceleration that is nearly constant that is, any deviation from the ideal motion can be essentially ignored. This I can say with absolute metaphysical certainty. It would be correct to say that no object has ever traveled in a straight line with a constant acceleration anywhere in the universe at any time - not today, not yesterday, not tomorrow, not five billion years ago, not thirty billion years in the future, never. Given that we live in a three dimensional universe in which the only constant is change, you may be tempted to dismiss this section outright. These equations of motion are valid only when acceleration is constant and motion is constrained to a straight line. Given that such a title would be a stylistic nightmare, let me begin this section with the following qualification. For the sake of accuracy, this section should be entitled "One dimensional equations of motion for constant acceleration". The file structure is totally different, and you can find references to Free Running in several places. They used assets from the classics yes, built their environments around the original ones, but they used the Free Running engine. I don't see why not so in fact.ĭefinitely not the classic engine, not even a vamped up version. I believe so since they were released on the archive. The neat thing is that the room geometry is grid based, so it should easily be possible to adapt for Tomb EditorĪmazing!!! So interesting that it uses a grid system as well, does this mean it could be a vamped up version of the classic engine? In the videos of the game, the geometry does seem to constitute spheres and realistic looking cracked ruins which I imagine has to be tweaked in some way as Lara does not interact with diagonal edges and such very well in the old engine.Ĭan we use these stuff for TRLE levels and fanarts, without copyright issues? Wire Frame screenshot of the Obelisk of Khamoon level:Īnd another screen of the lighting / vertex coloring: The neat thing is that the room geometry is grid based, so it should easily be possible to adapt for Tomb Editor: The model shows up without textures in Blender (I do not know if it's the fault of the fbx converter or the Blender importer script, that needs more investigation :p) fbx, so you need Autodesk's FBX Converter: fbx files are in ASCII format (which is nice since you can look at them in notepad etc) but Blender can't import ASCII fbx, only binary.

I had a quick glance and things look promising. This sort of assumes the issues with CD and ED were resolved in the end. As a result the files are now published on " We tried multiple times to clarify their position since Summer.

Within 24 hours of the released files, GhostBlade was able to tweak them into a playable format! Thanks to their contribution and of course Ash's efforts, we now get to experience this lost gem. Especially as I imagine we will learn more about this game through unpicking it! I thought a thread for everyone to post about the files and what is possible with them is a good idea. ![]() It seems that the character models, enemy models and objects will be available too requiring a software to extract them to user friendly formats. ![]() With some tweaking this could be made playable on TRLE and of course through other means! It seems to me that the geometry looks very complex for the classic TR engine even when used with Tomb Editor, but many of the very talented builders on here could comment better than me. I posted this in the open chat thread but I thought this might deserve it's own thread, because this is pretty huge news!Ĭore Design's cancelled Tomb Raider Anniversary Edition game files are now available for download thanks to the wonderful Ash! some of these files are the actual room geometries in user friendly format - meaning it can be opened with 3DS max and Maya. ![]() A mobile release was announced earlier this month, and the Switch is the only version yet to see a release, which makes it easy to guess which console will be the focus of the developer's next announcement. If I bought the game right now, does it still have the things brought with Weird Autumn or was that just a seasonal. Night in the Woods' developer Infinite Fall has done a good job connecting with its fans. Is the Night In The Woods: Weird Autumn a permanent edition/update I kinda missed on it when it was being hyped up, and recently stumbled on the title in a little notebook I have, where I basically just note interesting things. Coming to Xbox One/PS4/PC/Mac/Linux Dec 13th Ī trailer for the new version is also available and can be viewed below, and be sure to check out Elise Favis' thoughts on the original version of the game.

More information is still to come on a version for "another console." 'Weird Autumn' is a song written by Mae, Bea, Casey, Gregg, and Angus band. This version will be available on December 13, and will be free to those who already bought the game. This new version includes added gameplay segments and music as well as the game's pre-release bonus content Longest Night and Lost Constellations. In a thread post to the official Night in the Woods Twitter earlier this morning, the game's developers revealed Night in the Woods: Weird Autumn Edition. New stuff is cool, but there was so much old stuff I didnt do. novel Perdido Street Station (2000) fuelled the hybrid energy of the New Weird. As a 28y/o 'freshman' at college, I doodled a meme on my last Calculus midterm last week. Im pretty sure the optional stuff I missed is more than what was added in the directors cut.
