RimWorld is balanced around sitting on a single map, with everything easily accessible. I wanted a colony sim where other settlements around you aren’t just a static backdrop, but parts of a living, simulated world. For example, one of the things DOTS handled really well was rendering large amounts of entities.

This is where most of the rules have been ironed out and are acceptable enough to use during a prototype either in person or online through something like Tabletopia or Tabletop simulator. This is to make sure the game is – on some fundamental level – balanced. Where in an MMORPG world, that concept is very straightforward.

Cel shading can be described as a technique that gives any 3D or 2D rendering a cartoonish or hand-drawn effect. However, the most common one is the toon shader, which is designed to simulate the look of a hand-drawn animation. Achieving a balance between realism and cartoonish styles can be challenging.
