Some thoughts on performance and next step

I've been testing the 3D character on mobile devices and the performance impact it's huge, to the point that even a high-end mobile device struggles with 2 characters. It will improve with some optimization but 3D characters with facial expressions are demanding by nature due to 3D mesh deformations. Some games have a lower detailed version for mobile, others use pre-rendered/recorded videos... the second option it's discarded, real-time in-engine animation it's the way to go interactivity-wise. The first one tho could be interesting since can be implemented without affecting the rest of the game, it's pretty much a level of detail

The next 3D character it's going pretty well, I'll publish something next month.

Thanks for stay there, see ya soon! :)
