The 7 deadliest game dev sins. Are you guilty of any of them?

Awesome Tuts

It means you type a string manually every time you need it e.g. when checking collisions, getting a game object in the scene, getting a child object from a parent, etc. 5 Overusing cameras, especially on mobile devices. Learning how to use occlusion culling will also help you in this case. What does that mean? The solution?
