Game Design

A repeated sound effect is the fastest way to make a game feel cheap. How many variations each type of sound needs, and the pitch and layering tricks that stretch a small library.

A UI kit saves less time than you expect and more than you think — the difference depends on whether it is 9-slice ready and whether your game needs a visual identity in its interface.

“Mobile-friendly” on a product page means nothing without numbers. Realistic triangle budgets, why draw calls matter more than polygons, and what actually costs you frames on a mid-range phone.

Grid alignment decides whether a kit snaps together or fights you, and LODs, collision and Nanite compatibility decide what it costs you after the purchase.

Grid size is the decision you cannot undo later, autotiling saves more time than art quality, and the missing transition tiles are what turn a cheap tileset into a week of work.

Specific, complete and consistent — the three traits shared by packs that earn, the categories that reliably perform, and the store-page details that decide conversion.

Honest numbers rather than encouragement: what the 70/30 split leaves you, what a first pack realistically earns, price bands by category, and why the people earning a living have fifty packs.

Copying .uasset files through the file system is the fastest way to break an Unreal project. What Migrate does differently, why version mismatches cannot be worked around, and how to fix a project that is already full of missing references.

You can licence music perfectly legally for your game and still have streamers receive copyright claims. Two separate rights are involved — here is how to check before launch and what to do.

Fab pays 88% against Unity’s 70% — and that still does not settle it. A seller-side comparison of reach, audience habit, which product belongs where, and whether to list on both.
