An investigation post: how much memory do objects really hold on Android? Primary conclusion - Android heap dumps give us the real size of instances.

Astrologists proclaim week of indie game devs. All Android dev related posts have fled while screaming in horror.
We'll start slowly: one, two, three short videos by our good old jdh who's working on a game about a robot. That wants to plant plants. In a world, where no plants have left. Underground.

A week is a week. Here's the next video in that jdh series on custom game engine. Almost an hour of explanations on how this thing works. I've found several new ideas. But mostly I've been terrified on how they do things in C++. Disgusting. But again, maybe that's the way these things are done, dunno. Moreover, it's a pet project, jdh does anything he wants.
