CodeParade explores spherical geometry in two and three dimensions, demonstrating how it behaves differently from hyperbolic space in games.

A quick look at spherical geometry in 2 and 3 dimensions and why it looks so unusual. This is part 2 of my Hyperbolica Devlog series, and both geometries will be in the game. I promise I'll get to some actual game development stuff in the next video!

What people say. Recommended as a visual exploration of non-Euclidean geometry and its implementation in game engines.

On “Show HN: Sokyokuban, a puzzle game in a non-Euclidian world”

Code Parade on Youtube has some nice tech demo for non-euclidean 3D game engine. "Non-Euclidean Worlds Engine" - link "Spherical Geometry Is Stranger Than Hyperbolic" - link to this video

On “HyperRogue: A puzzle roguelike in a non-Euclidean world”

There’s another game being developed in a semi-3D hyperbolic geometry called Hyperbolica. The dev makes some fantastic videos 1. 1 link to this video

On “Geometry from Another Universe”

Hyperbolica is mostly about the opposite, a hyperbolic universe, but there may be some section to the game that will be in a spherical universe. There's definitely some devlog video set in a spherical universe: link to this video The end of the video suggests this will be in the final game, at least as the time that video's creation. In the meantime, the video I link is basically a video exploration of spherical geometry. One of the better ones, in my opinion, because it has "normal" objects in it, rather than floating heads or a ton of Earths or something. (Another amusing sidebar: As you can see in the video above, an inhabitant of that space would be naturally inclined to say the space curves in abo…

On “Spherical Snake”

Cool. It would also be interesting to see a hyperbolic snake. Reminds me of this video, where the dev compares spherical and hyperbolical geometries (albeit a dimension higher): link to this video
