Kai Leng wasn’t cool enough to be a Final Fantasy villain.

CPUs do math. 99% of programming has nothing to do with math.

From what I understand, BRUTAL (the thing that KSA devs made) is not a typical game engine. It’s very low level and more of a set of tools and libraries to make a game and its engine with, without completely reinventing the wheel. It doesn’t restrict game devs in any way and aims to give them maximum freedom (e.g. it doesn’t even have a concept of a “scene” that all engines like Unity or Unreal have). Obviously this also makes it very complicated to use compared to Unity, but makes it possible to custom-tailor it to any game and use case.

This is especially important for a game like KSA that doesn’t fit into Unity’s model at all, but I guess it also provides some benefits for RimWorld.

There are rumors it’s based on the engine that Kitten Space Agency’s (spiritual successor to Kerbal Space Program) devs develop. So it would be that other game.

IIRC you can’t grant the permission if the app doesn’t explicitly declare it in its manifest. I doubt most devs would care unless access to local network is required for app’s functionality on typical user’s setup (e.g. if it’s a companion app for some device).
