Great video covering the fundamental concepts and techniques for optimizing graphics in 3D games. You don't need to be an expert, but it's valuable to understand and develop an intuition for these basics -> youtu.be/phbaxNPJxss #gamedev #3d #optimization #graphics

Agreed! Although, it's the constraints that make every project, creator, and process uniquely interesting. I love hearing about these unique experiences - like someone starting from scratch just two days before a competition closes and still making the top 10!
The main takeaway from #js13k 2025: don't sink time into big, complex, self-contained concepts you don't have resources to finish properly. Start small but complete - then polish it as far as you can. Next year's goal: get the game to playtests and tune the gameplay from there ๐
We did it! ๐ Our game Cat Survivors took 2nd place in three categories at #js13k 2025! ๐ Huge thanks to everyone who played, rated, and shared feedback, to @end3r.bsky.social for another amazing jam! Time to celebrateโฆ with cake ๐ฐ #gamedev #cats #indiegame #indieGameDev #gamejam
