URP is tailored for performance-sensitive titles such as mobile or VR, while HDRP enables cinematic fidelity for high-end PC and console games. Shader management is critical. From mobile to console, each target comes with its own unique technical constraints.

This RC 6 has a few notable changes compared to the previous build: In RC 4, async shader compilation and caching was enabled by default on desktop, but several users reported issues with it on some hardware. You can enable it in the Project Settings ( rendering/gles3/shaders/shader_compilation_mode ). Estébanez ( RandomShaper )!

Visual shader editor. This seemed like a great idea at the beginning, but ended up giving us many problems, such as: Bad performance on old mobile/desktop hardware which wasn't designed for the more modern rendering techniques being used. Incompatibility with older mobile devices which do not support OpenGL ES 3.0. 2D skeletons.

For an upcoming project commission, I'm making a 2D game with crowd simulation and simple controls that works well on mobile browsers. The engine should be able to render and simulate 200+ lightweight game objects -- frame-animated sprites with simple collision, no fancy physics or shaders. Reminder: for iOS, that means WebGL 1.0
