Most people think math is about numbers. It's actually about patterns — and patterns are the language the universe writes itself in. Every game mechanic, every algorithm, every beautiful coincidence traces back to structure.
Philosophy of Math
Game design is applied mathematics in disguise. Probability curves balance loot tables. Graph theory shapes level design. Calculus optimizes difficulty ramps. Build anything interactive — you're doing math whether you know it or not.
Game Dev × Math
Why do smart people avoid math? Because we teach arithmetic and call it mathematics. Counting isn't math. Reasoning is math. We've been selling the wrapper, not the gift. The real thing is beautiful — and almost no one has seen it.
Education
There's a reason symmetry feels beautiful to every culture on earth. It's not arbitrary taste. It's your brain detecting mathematical invariance — and interpreting it as rightness. Aesthetics and mathematics are the same signal.
