🇬🇧 Immerse yourself in the captivating world of computing through the Sinclair ZX Spectrum—a groundbreaking microcomputer that captured the imagination of an entire generation!

🌟 In 1980, the visionary British entrepreneur and scientist, Sir Clive Sinclair, entered the home computer market with the ZX80 priced at £99.95, marking the era's most affordable personal computer in the United Kingdom. A year later, the ZX81 hit the high street, introducing home computing to a generation, with over 1.5 million units sold.

💻 Released in 1982 by Sinclair Research Ltd., the Sinclair ZX Spectrum swiftly became one of the most iconic home computers of its time. It dominated the UK's computer sales market, fiercely competing against Commodore and Amstrad. This compact and budget-friendly machine brought computing into countless households.

🕹️ Powered by the Zilog Z80A CPU running at 3.5 MHz and equipped with either 16 KB or 48 KB of RAM, the ZX Spectrum sported a sleek, compact design resembling a keyboard with rubber keys, making it innovative and approachable. Its graphics and sound capabilities were ahead of their time, enabling vibrant games and applications.

⌨️ One of the ZX Spectrum's standout features was its vast library of games. From classics like "Manic Miner" and "Jet Set Willy" to innovative titles developed by enthusiasts, the Spectrum's game collection remains a cherished part of gaming history. The computer's BASIC programming language also inspired users to create their own software.

🖥 Despite modest hardware specifications, the ZX Spectrum nurtured a lively community of developers and enthusiasts, serving as a gateway into the world of programming and digital creativity.

🚀 Over its lifespan, the ZX Spectrum evolved with new models, including the ZX Spectrum+, ZX Spectrum 128, and ZX Spectrum +2, each offering enhanced performance and features while retaining the beloved design.

📺 The ZX Spectrum's impact extended beyond its hardware, playing a pivotal role in the British computing scene, inspiring future generations of programmers and entrepreneurs. Its legacy resonates in modern computing and gaming through emulators and remakes that keep its spirit alive.

📊 At the peak of its success and largely inspired by the Japanese Fifth Generation Computer program, the company established the "MetaLab" research centre at Milton Hall near Cambridge to pursue advanced projects like artificial intelligence, wafer-scale integration, and formal verification.

💔 Financial difficulties in 1985, brought on by the failures of the Sinclair QL computer and the TV80 pocket television, led Sinclair to sell the rights to its computer products and brand name to Amstrad in 1986. Sinclair Research Ltd continued as a one-man company, marketing Clive Sinclair's inventions until his passing in September 2021.

Using gyroscope-based hand gestures to improve user experience

All content producers are trying to innovate new hooks that grab human attention. The most recent trend is short-form videos (Reels, stories, and Youtube shorts), which are used heavily in almost all social and content apps because of the substantial impact of user interaction.

And this refers to allowing new policies that will enable individuals to post freely on the internet and utilize the available platforms.

The Challenge

Enjoying short-form videos can mean lots of time spent on the internet, which is associated with exhaustion from browsing the internet and, thus, an increasing need for an aiding tool to help the users.

For instance, some people have pain in their thumbs, which lessens their ability to scroll over the screen of an internet-enabled device, which happens after spending a long time using the device. The reflection will explore an innovative tool available for users who use one hand to navigate short-form content.

I believe the gyroscope is a feature that can be a pleasing alternative that offers a new experience for the targeted users.

When does this happen?

Users continuously consume a lot of time while using their mobile devices, specifically for entertainment purposes like watching reels, which causes hand pain, especially for the thumb joint, especially when using the thumb for scrolling up and down for more than one hour.

Navigate Intuitively

The gyroscope is a microdevice that consists of a disc mounted to spin rapidly around an axis (Armenise & Ciminelli, 2020).

The gyroscopes' sensitivity is incredible; it feels like it is activated by your brain, not by your hand!

So moving the hand at a slight angle that is barely noticeable will crawl to reveal more content.

Gyroscope In Mobile Devices

Utilizing a gyroscope to measure the accelerometers' velocity along the x, y, and z axes. It was used in many different techniques and fields, like navigation, wellness, gaming, and many more. Here are some examples:

Gyroscope In Content Browsing

The gyroscope can deliver a seamless experience by tilting the mobile device up and down along the Y axis, which offers the ability to scroll between screen components that have a specific height for each post, regardless of the content type, for the sake of reducing the use of the thumb heavily.

Align to the left

Content Size

Determining the size of posts is essential to assist hand movement and the gyroscope sensitivity to measure how much the user needs to tilt their hand up or down to jump back and forth between different contents.

The social content depends on the following sizes to represent short video content, whether the label is a reel or any other similar video type. Those types usually have the same time duration, which is less than one minute, and they share the transition experience and functionality.

Targeted users

The findings indicated that 70% of the respondents used Facebook and Instagram, 40% used TikTok, 20% used Snapchat, and 40% used Pinterest. Moreover, 90% enjoyed watching the short-form video (reels)

Furthermore, 40% of the respondents were annoyed by the experience of sliding up and down to reveal content on their favorite social media platform. 70% of participants enjoyed watching short-form videos for more than 2 hours, and the rest were between 1 and 2 hours.

40% feel hand pain from browsing on their mobile devices, which makes them switch the device between hands to continue. Most of the participants enjoy browsing early morning and directly before sleeping.

A significant number of the respondents (80%) stopped using their devices because they were busy. 100% of the respondents use one hand and spend their time on social media applications.

How it works

By linking the gyroscope sensor with the desired content, The gyroscope can respond to changes with a hand gesture. Any movements can be calculated and connected with a particular output on the application.

Thus, the size of the short-form videos is defined, and the gyroscope can move from one video to another without the old-fashioned experience that depends on using the to scroll up/down.

Moreover, by shaking the device, we can refresh the current content and download the newest one, and this is by taking the user to the top of the screen again.

Gaming awards are weird this year. We have TGA, which has never made sensible nominations, and has publicly offended both the game developers, and the audience, by cutting the award winner speeches early and exists only for the hype and ads money, and to contrast we have GDC, which, well, Games Developer Conference, that consists of developers, is supposed to have critical merit behind it.

Yet, TGA gives Alan Wake 2 the Best Direction, Best Story and Best Visuals, while GDC gives AW2 Best Visuals only, while best Narrative goes to BG3. Also Tears of the Kingdom somehow got best technology???

Obv, I am a biased AW2 fan, and awards are generally meaningless, the normal disclaimer when discussing these things, y'know. Still, to me this is like an inverse of what should have happened, cause it's weird for TGA to NOT go for the obvious trendy game BG3, and for the GDC to follow said popular trend.

I don't doubt BG3 is good, not at all. I just doubt a 100+++ hour game can tell the story with the same impact that the 20-30 smth hour one can. Also, the hundred-hours game is rpg, so you have multiple choices, which normally leads to content cuts of the consequences of said choices, cause they are just not viable, for developers OR for players. And again, AW2 is a linear story with fixed characters, plus they make heavy use of the extended lore of the remedyverse. And it's a story about stories inside a story. Written by a writer, about a writer and for writers. Again, I don't mean to down BG3 and Larian - they are a great studio, a dying breed these days in the industry, I just don't think you can meaningfully tell a story over such a long period of time, pacing exists the chat in these cases.

Also, I am just. What Technology is GDC referring to when they award Tears of the Kingdom??? Specifically technology, not design, design went to BG3 there is no question about that. Like??? Switch is a not a new platform, the hardware has been the same for...more than 7 years I think, at this point? What kind of technology are they talking about here?

update: looked it up and apparently the tech award goes to TOK for the multi-leveled seamless open world and physics engine, again, on a Switch hardware. Yeah, I get behind this choice now.

I am a bit mad now that the GDC Innovation award didn't go to Viewfinder. Like, that game is LITERAL innovation, no other game did something like Viewfinder before...

Another great reminder that everything is subjective, and awards especially.

#okay okay i can get the bg3 vs aw2 story award debate that one is honestly hard to answer #but INNOVATION award didn't go to viewfinder? COME ON #that is just offensive in my opinion #i am a remedy fanboy sorry not sorry #aw 2 is a tech award nominee so there's some justice still #aw2 is literally one of the only games that can give you a feeling of new highend tech #which ill probably never experience but im okay with that i am not a graphics obsessed maniac #can't deny that no game looks like aw2 though and it also HAD to work to make those transitions between gameplay and cutscenes work #gdc #games developers choice awards #aw2 #alan wake 2 #bg3 #tga #the game awards 2023 #zelda totk #viewfinder

Interactive Storytelling: Encouraging Kids to Craft Their Adventures

Interactive storytelling with choices and branching narratives engages and ignites children’s creativity. Twine makes it easy and user-friendly for kids to actively participate and have control over their narratives.

Twine is an ideal platform for creating interactive stories. Its interface resembles a flowchart, with interconnected passages of text forming the story’s branching structure. By linking these passages with choices, young storytellers can create different pathways and multiple endings. The visual representation helps them understand cause-and-effect relationships in storytelling.

Interactive storytelling empowers children with important life skills. Through making choices and experiencing the consequences, they improve their decision-making abilities. They learn to consider different perspectives, analyze outcomes, and weigh options. This skill set becomes invaluable as they face more complex decision-making scenarios.

Interactive storytelling is a valuable tool for children to engage in the storytelling process. Using platforms like Twine, young storytellers can animate their ideas, produce complex stories with multiple pathways and choices, and cultivate essential life abilities. Promoting interactive storytelling helps children explore their creativity and develop their skills as storytellers and decision-makers. Overall, interactive storytelling is a powerful way to encourage children’s growth and development.

I always forget this wasn’t a thing everywhere but my high school had a fun and innovative way to torment us in PE. They got heart rate monitors. It was this awful strap that went under the bra line and paired to a watch. The first day was great cause we got to set our resting heart rate. We did this by laying in a dark room and napping.

But then once a week we’d have to strap on these monitors and go running. The monitors were old tech and didn’t always pick up your heartbeat, so you’d have to use cold water between it and your skin to get a better connection, gods know why. Warm water never worked. After the day our watches would be collected and our efforts recorded.

The idea was that if your heart beat too fast you were supposed to stop, and if it was too slow you’d speed up. In practice this was ridiculous, staying in the green zone all class was ridiculously difficult.

Even people like me who were stubbornly resistant to running the mile couldn’t stand the horrific constant beeping and made attempts to placate the reviled machine. It was always fairly miserable. I had PE first thing in the chilly morning, dashing cold water on my skin before running around half awake was the low point of my week.

But for some unknown reason, the teacher insisted that no play could happen on these days. We were given the freedom to run all over campus but woe betide us if we tried to make a game that actually made this enjoyable.

We’d initiate games of tag only to get yelled at for not just… running. Any kind of play was forbidden. On one memorable occasion someone got a kickball and we started an impromptu soccer game with it.

If someone’s heart rate got too high they’d drop to their knees to wait out the shrieking of their watch so an extra element was added to the game of trying to win without going too hard. I remember being absolutely delighted, the thrill of that game still lives in my heart, hoping I could score a goal before my heartbeat betrayed me to the hated watch.

When the PE teacher found us we were soundly scolded and the ball was confiscated. Our happiness burst like a soap bubble and we turned our back to the enchantment of the green field and resumed slogging along in a grey haze as expected.

Game Engines Market: Unveiling Opportunities and Challenges

The global game engines market size is anticipated to reach USD 8,261.6 million by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 17.4% over the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth of the market for game engines can be attributed to several factors, including the increasing demand for mobile games, the rise of virtual and augmented reality technologies, and the growing popularity of esports.

Game Engines Market Report Highlights

The solution component segment accounted for the highest revenue share of over 70.0% in 2022, due to the ease of development of high-quality games using game engines. Solution components like plugins and asset packs can help developers save time and resources by utilizing pre-made tools and assets for game development

The 3D game engine segment is expected to register the fastest CAGR from 2023 to 2030. The growth is attributed to the increasing popularity of 3D games, which provide players with immersive and engaging experiences and are becoming more popular among gamers of all ages

Based on genre, the action & adventure games segment accounted for the highest revenue share in 2022, and is poised to expand at a CAGR of 16.1% during the forecast period. The rise in trend of smartphone-based gaming among end-users is anticipated to propel the growth of the segment

Asia Pacific is expected to expand at the highest CAGR of 18.4% over the forecast period, owing to the region's large and rapidly expanding population of gamers

For More Details or Sample Copy please visit link @: Game Engines Market Report

Game engines are also becoming more accessible and easier to use, allowing developers of all skill levels to create high-quality games and interactive experiences. The market is also witnessing the emergence of innovative game engines, including Unreal Engine 5 and Amazon Lumberyard, which are expected to further drive industry growth. The increasing adoption of game engines across various industries, including education, healthcare, and advertising, is expected to continue the rapid growth of the market during the forecast period.

The increasing popularity of mobile gaming drives the market growth of game engines. With the sustained rise in popularity of smartphones and tablets, mobile gaming has become more accessible than ever, increasing demand for games that can be played on the go. Platforms like Unity and Unreal Engine have been able to capitalize on this trend by providing developers with tools and resources to create high-quality mobile games quickly and efficiently.

The primary advantage of using game engines for mobile game development is the ability to create games for multiple platforms. Companies offer support for a range of platforms, including iOS, Android, console, and PC. This allows developers to create games once and deploy them to multiple platforms, saving time and resources. The rapid growth in popularity of the eSports industry is also driving market demand, with esports having millions of players & viewers globally. As it continues to grow, companies like Unity and Unreal Engine are becoming more crucial for creating high-quality games that can be played competitively.

Game engines offer features such as real-time physics simulation and network optimization, which ensure smooth and responsive gameplay in online multiplayer matches. Besides providing tools for game development, these platforms are used to create specialized tools and software for eSports. For example, Unity has launched Unity for eSports, a set of tools and services designed specifically for the industry. The platform offers features like match management, player profiles, and live streaming integration, making it easier for organizers to manage and broadcast eSports events.

The accessibility of this platform is another factor contributing to the market growth. In the past, game development was a highly technical and time-consuming process that required significant expertise. Nowadays, game engines have become more user-friendly with drag-and-drop interfaces, pre-built assets, and tutorials, making it easier for developers of all skill levels to create games. This accessibility has allowed more developers to enter the market, leading to an explosion in the number of games being created.
