This version is the one implemented by the IBM Corporation on computers running the OS/400 operating system, and is compatible with OS/400 Version 5, Release 2 and earlier.

You will learn how to write a robust game loop, how to organize your entities using components, and take advantage of the CPUs cache to improve your performance. You'll dive deep into how scripting engines encode behavior, how quadtrees and other spatial partitions optimize your engine, and how other classic design patterns can be used in games.
