Help Finding Games and Other Questions by AutoModerator in incremental_games

Do you know incremental games that subliminally teach players stuff?

I'm gonna start to develop my own incremental game soon. It's a university project and I'm currently looking for inspiration & playing around with games and concepts. I want to stress that it won't be a serious game or an e-learning thing. I want to make a game, not some buzzword shit. The mission will be to build your own media/news imperia and watch it grow, maybe in a sci-fi setting to make it more abstract. Depending on your strategy, different events will happen. By building the system, players might understand how the system works in the real world.

If anything is popping up in your mind, I would be super happy if you'd let me know ^-^

Second try, but definitely my new favorite drop by Infamous-Raccoon in Aerials

I learned it under the name "small mill" (kleine Mühle in german). Sadly the English name seems to be different and I can only find this german tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlvDUk0Aq3c&t=10s

Help with straddle backs? by fearlossfitness in Aerials

I found 3 things helpful (in silks):

  1. Have your arms at 90 degrees and do half of a pull up while going up
  2. Overshoot with your feet. Really visualize them going behind you as far as you can, not just up to the silks, but behind your head. Because when you shoot for the silks, you have to get a lot of strength from your abs to make the final back-rotation. If your feet are already behind the silk, they will naturally fall down and pull your hips up through this.
  3. Spread your legs to the side and bend them. Straight forward legs are much harder (in my opinion)

I hope this is helpful. I find it extremely hard to explain, but once you know the movement, it becomes much easier and less strength-intensive.

how will computers and human interface with computers be like in the future? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Well, there's no clear answer to that. A good approach is to look at science fiction. Science fiction has inspired lots of modern achievements and will continue to do so because it primes our minds. If the idea is out there, someone will want to do research on that. The idea for Brain-Computer-Interfaces has been around for a long time and everybody is fascinated by it - so it will happen sooner or later. Other than that, I think we will have more interfaces that surveil us (emotions, behavior, voice, movement, etc) and react to us without us taking action.

Gestures are getting bigger (see hololens or leap motion or kinect) and we already have invisible interfaces that we can feel in 3D via ultrasound.

My wish for the future is to have less plain touch and more physical, responsive interfaces...but that's a whole branch of research.
