GDC Summer Highlights | | Advocacy Hidden Histories Brenda Romero - Game Director - Romero Games The history of women in computing has largely been lost, like the histories of factory workers who built the first cars. Yet, women invented programming, were the original developers for the ENIAC, created assembly language and developed the first compiler (not to mention the term “compiler” and “bug”), and were instrumental to the development of many seminal programming languages. So what happened? It’s a drama that’s equal parts cultural excavation and celebration. In this talk, Brenda Romero digs up this fascinating history, explores what happened, and looks at how the artefacts of this legacy still affect computing and its growth today.

The principles they defined through experience in id’s earliest days built upon one another to produce a unique methodology and a constantly shippable codebase. In this talk, John Romero discusses id software’s early days, these programming principles and the events and games that led to their creation.

It will outline which technological and creative constraints had to be navigated to suit the visual style, performance requirements and overall look and feel of Control's paranormal but grounded reality. Covering the principles of how dynamically destructible environments can be achieved, it will give a detailed look on the Houdini based procedural pipeline used to create the games' destructible content. It demonstrates the path of an asset from conception to destruction and will also allow to shed some light on the glad-we-dids and should-not-haves of the used approach and ideas for future development.
