I've recently taken up a huge interest in game and simulation programming as it's something I've always wanted to try since I was in grade school. I've began looking around at colleges and schools in my area that offer classes in this field, or something similar. Does anyone have any recommended readings or programs that I should check out to help me learn and study?

There was a 500+ level grad class in my curriculum..."Simulation of Physical Systems" was a good intro for programming "natural" algorithms.

Vassago,

Not an answer to your question but I thought it might be interesting.

Yeah, I was reading up on that when they released it. Seems to be a pretty nice little tool, but I'm wondering what the catch is. Do they own anything you create...etc.
