Code a Physics Engine

In this video you’ll learn how to make a simple physics engine so that objects in your game will follow the laws of motion.

When you program rules into your world, it means you don’t have to program every little thing that your characters do, they can just follow the rules you set out for them. Your characters can have a life of their own, and you, the game creator will have more time, energy and creativity to devote to all the other aspects of your game, like the story and art.
