  1. High Score Documentary (Netflix Series)Ā šŸŽ„ - This is a fun and short documentary series about the video game industry from its very beginning. I enjoyed it and learned a few new things as well.
  2. The Easy Ones ā€“ Three Bugs Hiding in the OpenĀ šŸ” - These are lessons in project cleanup. Not only did Bruce find bugs, but he found and fixed issues that saved a lot of money. I highly recommend his whole blog and will feature more posts in the future.
  3. Fullscreen Rotation on the SEGA Genesis? How this game does the impossibleĀ šŸŽ® - Early consoles had very limited hardware capabilities, and game developers had to come up with creative solutions.

  4. Judo vs Jiu Jitsu Takedown by Ilias Iliadis (Olympic Judo Champion)Ā šŸ„‹ - BJJ Fanatics is a website that sells martial arts instructionals. They also post clips on their YouTube channel, including this one about a judo takedown.
