  it's so refreshing to see someone understand how 4d works

  honestly you being good at 4d and bad at golf is by far the funniest combination

  Now someone needs to make a game called "3d golf" where you play as a 2d being and only ever see one slice.

  I like how it gets us to actually need navigation tools like a compass for once

  My brain first: This is just 3D golf with extra steps.<br>My brain later: This is 3D golf with an extra <i>dimension.</i>

  We need more 4d games. Imagine competitive fast paced 4d games. My brain hurts thinking about it.

  This game teaches you about good data visualization

  at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSdWBfRAeiU&amp;t=1610">26:50</a> your ball wasn&apos;t just traveling through volume view it was also moving through the 4th dimension that volume view hides, up and down. My hypothesis is that your ball bounced over the guard rail in the up/down dimension and flew out of bounds. this is not something that volume view shows. It could show your height off the ground by coloring the ball differently or changing the balls opacity depending on its distance from the ground but that is not a tool provided. :D

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSdWBfRAeiU&amp;t=2725">45:25</a> “I just need to gently glide down with gravity” You can control the initial speed and angle in 4D, but you can’t control where your geodesic (straight on surface) paths will take you (with reflections and parabolic bounces that get smaller and smaller for each bounce and with friction also alters your path) only control for them in a 4D space on a 3D golf track with gravity automatically changing your 3D slice (2D slice of the volumetric track) keeping its hyperplanar (3D slice) orientation as you roll down 3D hills. That is until (foreshadowing) you get to more difficult levels
