Reflecting on 40 Years of Making and Loving Casual Games

Rob Glaser wrote his first game in 1978 – a presidential election simulation called Prez that ran on a DEC PDP 11. He then published his first computer games – Slinx and Viper for the IBM PC – in 1982. Since then, Rob has stayed involved in casual games – first at Microsoft for 10 years, then at RealNetworks for over 20. He reflects back on what he’s learned and what he sees as the greatest opportunities ahead.

Reflecting on 40 Years of Making
and Loving Casual Games
Rob Glaser
Founder, Chairman & CEO
RealNetworks

40 Years of Making Games (Actually, 39)
• Wrote my first game in 1978
• Written in Basic on a DEC PDP 11/34
• “Prez,” a Presidential Election
simulation game
• Great way to learn programming
• I also learned systems programming…

1982: Slynx and Viper:
My 1st 2 commercial games

What Have I Learned over 40 years?
• The most important thing: Is the game fun?
• 2nd most important thing: Does the game work on more than 1 level?
• Constraints are great opportunities for creativity
• If a game was great 40 years ago, it’s still a great game
• The best games ever haven’t been created yet

Thanks!

Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/why-teams-call-analytics-is-critical-to-your-entire-business Nothing is as frustrating and noticeable as being in an important call and being unable to see or hear the other person. Not surprising then, that issues with Teams calls are among the most common problems users call their helpdesk for. Having in depth insight into everything relevant going on at the user’s device, local network, ISP and Microsoft itself during the call is crucial for good Microsoft Teams Call quality support. To ensure a quick and adequate solution and to ensure your users get the most out of their Microsoft 365. But did you know that ‘bad calls’ are also an excellent indicator of other problems arising? Precisely because it is so noticeable!? Like the canary in the mine, bad calls can be early indicators of problems. Problems that might otherwise not have been noticed for a while but can have a big impact on productivity and satisfaction. Join this session by Christoph Adler to learn how true Microsoft Teams call quality analytics helped other organizations troubleshoot bad calls and identify and fix problems that impacted Teams calls or the use of Microsoft365 in general. See what it can do to keep your users happy and productive! In this session we will cover - Why CQD data alone is not enough to troubleshoot call problems - The importance of attributing call problems to the right call participant - What call quality analytics can do to help you quickly find, fix-, and prevent problems - Why having retrospective detailed insights matters - Real life examples of how others have used Microsoft Teams call quality monitoring to problem shoot problems with their ISP, network, device health and more.

A remarkably simple and highly readable programming language resulted in groundbreaking advancements in the IT industry. 2:48-Importance and unraveling the powerful capabilities of C, The widespread use of C started to take over the IT industry. Unraveling the potential of C, the designers began to discover new possibilities that led them to focus on the big picture. 3:56-C's cutting-edge features The designers at Bell Laboratories ensured that their programming language solved the issues with B and BCPL and the ones they had foreseen. 6:35-The popular real-world applications of C -UNIX operating system -google file system -Mozilla -Graphical user interface 8:30-The advantages and disadvantages of C 10:34-The popular IT companies and their domains that employ C · MasterCard · IBM · Flipkart · Dell · Twitter · GitHub and twitch 11:09-First c program. 🔥 Explore our FREE courses with completion certificates: https://www.simplilearn.com/skillup-f... ✅Subscribe to our Channel to learn more about the top Technologies: https://bit.ly/2VT4WtH ⏩ Check out the C++ Programming training videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list... #IntroductiontoCProgrammingLanguage #CLanguage #CProgramming #CProgram #CProgrammingLanguage #LearnCProgramming #HowToCodeInCForBeginners #CTutorialForBeginners #LearnCProgramming #Simplilearn Dennis Ritchie, a computer scientist, was able to identify the gaps and tap out the best features from both B and BCPL languages to invent a new hybrid.

C++ is an enhanced and extended version of C programming language, developed by Bjarne Stroustrup in 1979 as part of his Ph.D. project. Bjarne developed what he called ‘C with Classes’ (later renamed C++) because he felt limited by the existing programming languages that were not ideal for large scale projects. He used C to build what he wanted because C was already a general-purpose language that was efficient and fast in its operations. ✅C++ Career Prospects: With just C++ programming expertise, you will have excellent job opportunities, salaries, and career prospects. However, for a career based on programming languages such as Java and Python (which are in more demand than C++) or for careers based on front-end, back-end, and full-stack
