A craftsman doesn't now how the steel was melted for his favorite knife. Hey maybe we're just talking past each other here.

No this wasn't any sarcasm. I also want to use my smartphone without having to know how it works. If the engine can't be used for fast moving objects, just tell me in the docs. It's not my job to know the inner workings of the engine. I stand by my point.

But why would I care about how the engine works? It should just work, I don't want to waste my time with understanding how.

Are there any good books for actual game development? Not how to make the next generic platformer, but rather how to make sure all your assets, classes and scripts are structured and well organized despite having hundreds or even thousands of files. Or how to create dynamic modules that can be reused for many poarts of the game. When, and when not to build things dynamic vs. simply hardcoding them. I miss all this stuff in every book/tutorial I had so far.

lfkdev··on Is Meta having growing pains or in a death spiral?
Against most opinions here, I think something like the metaverse can work. The hardware is just not there yet. Once it's a really lightweight device with good enough graphics people will use it.
