In this episode, we'll dive into the fascinating science behind video games. We'll explore how they'll tap into physics, applying Newton’s laws of motion and projectile motion. We'll see how chemistry plays a role, especially when characters mix elements to concoct new potions. The focus will also shift to biology, reflecting on ecosystems and character evolution that mirror our world. We'll peek at the programming and AI that bring other characters to life in these games. And, we won't overlook the psychology and math intricately woven into the gameplay. Plus, we'll take a glimpse at alien eyes and the creation of stars.
