This page contains all of the pre-recorded video lessons posted so far, with the most
recent posting listed first. It is, for all intents and purposes, the textbook of this
course. You are expected to keep up with these videos. Each
class session will indicate the videos that we
will have expected you to watch by that point.
We do apologize about the quality of these videos. These are not the professional,
YouTube style videos that we made for 1110. For the most part it is your instructor
talking through slides. That is because we chose to focus this semester on improving
the game engine technology, and not on making the fanciest videos possible.
