This deserves the frontpage so much. This game looks better in some ways than GoldenEye 007 on the N64, which was on a 12 MB cartridge. And the video is such a great and fun explanation of how it was done.
The article grossly underestimates the energy needed to be stored. You cannot fly an aircraft planning to use 100% of its ‘fuel’. You need alternate(s) and final reserve.
Whoch likely mean doubling the required size of the battery pack, making it infeasible.
Update: Done! [Most likely, If I find the time to do so,I will keep an eye on it for a few days to see if its computed daily or not but I am most likely sure that it might be the case]
By that logic, there was no value added in updating the syntax from ANSI C to C99: no reason to add double-slash comments, no reason to allow function-local variables to be declared and initialized where you use them instead of the top of the function, and no reason to omit a return statement for the main() function.
From your reasoning, it also follows that using infix notation instead of Polish notation for arithmetic does absolutely nothing to lower the learning curve.
