Description:
Kevin Beimers, creator of Mona Lisa and Schrodinger’s Cat: Raiders of the Lost Quark, talks about his quest for the Holy Grail of Jump Mechanics, including Mona Lisa’s Evil Twin, Xeno’s Paradox of Perfection, the You Know What I Meant factor, the other 99 problems he ran into on the way to the Louvre… and why he’s not sad about it.

Take Away
I intend to walkthrough our development process for building our predictive pathfinding platformer and show how close to perfection something can reach and still be deemed imperfect for launch.

Audience Adressed: For intermediate & advanced developers.
