Blogging is pretty cool; I'm trying to get into it more, not just because I think I can help a few people out, but for my own personal enjoyment and use as well.
I want to try a different style of programming and that is applying general physics/data logic into game scripting; what I mean by this is by instead of following some REALLY specific instance of a mechanic such as a grappling hook or wall-running ability is instead to figure out the actual physics of what an entity needs to be able to swing across a rope or how much force/friction is necessary to run-up a wall. This also applies to things like Shaders and Post-Process effects.
What I have found are some very helpful online resources that can help me out as I start this new journey.

I'll try to update this list more and more if people have suggestions. I have also noticed general terms like "physics of a plane" and "force needed to push an object" helps as well. I'll be trying these findings out by the end of the month and post my test results. I hope you also have found this blog useful!
