I found 4D Golf a great game to explore higher dimensional space.
Got a link?
This is an awesome experience. Very useful tool to get exposure to thinking in "higher" dimensions!
that was incredibly cool
Now waiting since 16 years for the release of Miegakure.

this is visually interesting, but crucially it's also actually fun to play.
i managed to kill three enemies before succumbing to my fate
Ok... he was right. It broke my brain.
That's not 4D
Then what is it? I'm seeing 4x5 transform matrices in the code, looks 4D enough to me.
Why not?
