    Gamedeveloper.com (previously gamasutra) has had this excellent section called "developer blogs" since 2007, and over the years it's been a great source of game-dev knowledge from indie devs to AAA devs and covering every possible subject.
    However, after their rebrand, finding these posts has become a bit of a challenge. Many of the original links are broken, and navigating the site isn’t as smooth as it used to be.

    That's why I put together this page, a searchable archive of every dev blog post since the beginning. It's a quick way to explore and rediscover content that might otherwise be lost or hard to find. I may expand it in the future to include other categories on Gamedeveloper.com or even additional sites, creating a broader "game dev knowledge" repository—but that's for later!

    Here are a few of my favorite posts i've read over the years:

    "The Door Problem" of Game Design This is a proper game design classic! It uses the example of implementing a door to show how involved game design can be and how a larger team might be involved with the various aspects of a game element.
    Platformer controls: how to avoid limpness and rigidity feelings Tips on making platformer movement feel tight and satisfying.
    Common Mistakes in Game Animation Sort of fitting with the previous one, I feel like these complement each other really well.
    The Zero Budget Indie Marketing Guide An older article but I think it really touches on some key "truths" which are just as valid today.

    if you come across any cool articles or hidden gems, feel free to share them!
