The actual answer is that if you design a game for 60fps instead of 120fps, it's twice as interest…

Hm. Let's say we lived in a world where monitors were commonly 30hz and there were also these 90h…
Why not fix the update rate with a fixed time step? Example Pseudo-code: handle_input(game_state,…
Why do you say that code "physically is unintentionally designed to only work at 60fps"? Can you c…
it's perfectly possible to have the physics engine run at 10 Hz while graphics is 400 fps. All you…

First of all, I know it's done though delta and it doesn't affect the physics. You're making me to…
The code passes delta for frame in game_input structure (dtForFrame member). And all relative mot…

Sure, I guess I'll try to fix it. Thanks
