3D Game Development
Principles for 3D game systems.
1. Rendering Pipeline
Stages
1. Vertex Processing → Transform geometry
2. Rasterization → Convert to pixels
3. Fragment Processing → Color pixels
4. Output → To screen
Optimization Principles
| Technique | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Frustum culling | Don't render off-screen |
| Occlusion culling | Don't render hidden |
| LOD | Less detail at distance |
| Batching | Combine draw calls |
2. Shader Principles
Shader Types
| Type | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Vertex | Position, normals |
| Fragment/Pixel | Color, lighting |
| Compute | General computation |
When to Write Custom Shaders
- Special effects (water, fire, portals)
- Stylized rendering (toon, sketch)
- Performance optimization
- Unique visual identity
3. 3D Physics
Collision Shapes
| Shape | Use Case |
|---|---|
| Box | Buildings, crates |
| Sphere | Balls, quick checks |
| Capsule | Characters |
| Mesh | Terrain (expensive) |
Principles
- Simple colliders, complex visuals
- Layer-based filtering
- Raycasting for line-of-sight
4. Camera Systems
Camera Types
| Type | Use |
|---|---|
| Third-person | Action, adventure |
| First-person | Immersive, FPS |
| Isometric | Strategy, RPG |
| Orbital | Inspection, editors |
Camera Feel
- Smooth following (lerp)
- Collision avoidance
- Look-ahead for movement
- FOV changes for speed
5. Lighting
Light Types
| Type | Use |
|---|---|
| Directional | Sun, moon |
| Point | Lamps, torches |
| Spot | Flashlight, stage |
| Ambient | Base illumination |
Performance Consideration
- Real-time shadows are expensive
- Bake when possible
- Shadow cascades for large worlds
6. Level of Detail (LOD)
LOD Strategy
| Distance | Model |
|---|---|
| Near | Full detail |
| Medium | 50% triangles |
| Far | 25% or billboard |
7. Anti-Patterns
| ❌ Don't | ✅ Do |
|---|---|
| Mesh colliders everywhere | Simple shapes |
| Real-time shadows on mobile | Baked or blob shadows |
| One LOD for all distances | Distance-based LOD |
| Unoptimized shaders | Profile and simplify |
Remember: 3D is about illusion. Create the impression of detail, not the detail itself.

fastapi-mastery
Comprehensive FastAPI development skill covering REST API creation, routing, request/response handling, validation, authentication, database integration, middleware, and deployment. Use when working with FastAPI projects, building APIs, implementing CRUD operations, setting up authentication/authorization, integrating databases (SQL/NoSQL), adding middleware, handling WebSockets, or deploying FastAPI applications. Triggered by requests involving .py files with FastAPI code, API endpoint creation, Pydantic models, or FastAPI-specific features.
context7-efficient
Token-efficient library documentation fetcher using Context7 MCP with 86.8% token savings through intelligent shell pipeline filtering. Fetches code examples, API references, and best practices for JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, and other libraries. Use when users ask about library documentation, need code examples, want API usage patterns, are learning a new framework, need syntax reference, or troubleshooting with library-specific information. Triggers include questions like "Show me React hooks", "How do I use Prisma", "What's the Next.js routing syntax", or any request for library/framework documentation.
browser-use
Browser automation using Playwright MCP. Navigate websites, fill forms, click elements, take screenshots, and extract data. Use when tasks require web browsing, form submission, web scraping, UI testing, or any browser interaction.
