Sharing our Unite Seoul talk on building a 3D Vampire Survivors-like, the kind with hundreds of enemies on screen at once. "Hundreds of Enemies, a Light Build": how Ember & Blade draws the horde, keeps the fight readable, and still ships small. Deck is now up in English(93 slides, video included): nine-lives.dev/insights/unite… Talk (KR): youtube.com/watch?v=q1dmtL… #GameDevs #Unity #Unity3D #Unite26
We’ve nearly wrapped up the features for the demo update and are moving into QA. That means the team gets to capture footage for the trailer while I get busy editing it. There are more ways to combine everything now, so I’m still figuring out what to show and how best to show it. First step: shoot a lot and see what ends up looking best. 🎞️
@sublimeartsio @eiasninelives The core issues were draw calls and skinned animations. Other than that, most of it was hitching lag, which was driven by shader cache, memory, AI, and physics in that order.
Blasting 400 enemies off the screen at once in a 3D roguelite action game is a thrill. But what was it like to actually make that happen? At UNITE Seoul 2026, Ember and Blade Technical Director Dohaeng Lee (@sonanDev) and Technical Artist Jinhee Lee shared everything they learned along the way. The link is in the thread below. 👇 What are you waiting for? Go check it out!
It’s finally out! 🚀 It was an absolute honor to speak at Unite on the very stage where Unity 7 was announced! Our TA and I got the chance to share our engineering and tech-art insights on building a premium Survivor-like game in Unity. Huge thanks to everyone who attended! Check out the recap here: gamevu.co.kr/news/articleVi… #Unite #UniteSeoul #Unity3D #Unity7 #GameDev #TechArt #SurvivorLike

Running 1 vs 10,000 in Unity 3D (4K on a Mac). 🔥 This was the very first tech prototype built 2 years ago, right before Ember and Blade even started. Pushed raw prototyping assets to the limit just to see if we could lock a solid 144 FPS against a 10k horde. 🛠️ Tech Stack: - URP (Universal Render Pipeline) - VAT (Vertex Animation Texture) / GPU Instancing - morpeh ECS Framework #Unity3D #GameDev #ECS #URP #EmberAndBlade #MacGaming

can’t think of a better analogy than this. fable = f1 car sol = tesla model x plaid it perfectly captures everything from cost-efficiency and token consumption to performance.
i had a different experience. fable is a f1 car, 5.6 sol @ ultra is a tesla model x plaid. does it find things that fable misses during planning and coding? yes, most of the time. but - for the hardest of problems, does fable routinely find things that 5.6 doesn't? also yes,
