@conkerjo @FreyaHolmer The only reason you can react in time in sonic is that you already know the level tho

I had a similar issue when making a 2D sidescrolling racing game
when going fast, it's hard to react to things ahead because you can't see very far, so I thought, maybe I'll just zoom out the camera based on speed?
but that completely cancelled out the *feeling* of going fast

@FreyaHolmer Makes me wonder how sonic pulled it off. Sense of speed and control and could react in time!
English
my next solution was to not zoom out, but make the camera move ahead of the player's velocity, to make you see more
..but that removed the feeling of acceleration - seeing your camera lag *behind* was actually really important for that

Johnny Lee famously hacked a Wii Remote to turn a 2D screen into a 3D window. We revived this trick in Chrome using a standard webcam.
Here’s how we did it. 🧵👇

Huh. This whole maths story sure is distracting from the collapse of the NHS, the endless strikes, staggering poverty and the full jack boot attack on immigrants in all the right wing press. Weird.
