First of all, check out this stunning video National Geographic just posted on their YouTube channel about freediving. I plan on incorporating a lot of what I've seen here into a game in the future. Some sort of haunting plane of water.

Star Wars is HOT right now and its time to remind everyone of it's Asian roots. Akira Kurosawa's films (and Japanese culture as a whole) had a profound influence on George Lucas as he was creating one of the most enduring science fiction franchises ever. Unfortunately, it took decades for us to f...
