Developing a detailed, polished universe like this presumably took a lot of time and effort from the team, but it pays off in the end as they continuously push out more content over time for player engagement. In terms of content, the plot of Cookie Run: Kingdom advances very quickly while maintaining a grip on the details of the characters.

So many games have that question baked into their core. Not only does it help your team manage the workload, but it means you can roll out more content to keep your players engaged later.

The bulk of a game’s content package is made up of resources that naturally target the GPU: textures, materials, and geometry data. Traditional data compression techniques are applicable to game content that rarely changes. However, it may result in variation in latency when delivering the resource contents to their final locations.

Static batching : combines static (not moving) GameObjects into big Meshes, and renders them in a faster way.   Doing it before starting the actual game would mean to already generate all the content that needs to be batched at the beginning, which is no solution for a theoretically “endless procedurally generated” terrain.

This is a challenging task, even in cinematic rendering, because it is difficult to find all the paths of light that contribute meaningfully to an image. Solving this problem through brute force requires hundreds, sometimes thousands of paths per pixel, but this is far too expensive for real-time rendering.

This means having lots of lights no longer creates a performance hit on the rendering pipeline, since all we need to do is sample a single texture and we get the amount of light coming from all light sources. light mapper is based on the same approach used in global illumination.
