Unite2012 Click and Gun - Lighting workflow
0 likes672 views
Silicon Jelly is a Czech indie game studio based in Prague, currently developing three game titles including 'Click and Gun', a 2D/3D action tower defense game featuring unique visuals, 22 enemies, and 8 hand-drawn locations. The team emphasizes rapid development through efficient asset creation, lighting workflows, and optimization techniques while using Unity 3.5. Additionally, they face challenges such as texture compression and avoiding alpha blending for mobile performance.
