My name is Max McGuire and I’ve been working as a programmer in the video game industry since 2001.

I’m the co-founder and Technical Director of Unknown Worlds Entertainment, and am currently working on Natural Selection 2.

Here are a few articles I’ve written for flipcode:

- "Under engineered" isn't a phrase you hear too often
- New blog post on dealing with the Z-buffer when drawing view models in first person games http://t.co/hMQjGZdZ

- @aras_p Unless it's a Unity project, of course
- "Portable" code can be surprisingly unportable
- @CasualEffects SSE has a prefetch instruction (_mm_prefetch is the intrinsic)
- Happy to see #titanquest ranked #65 on the PC Gamer top 100 PC games list
