From Concept to Completion: Navigating the Game Art Production Pipeline 

iXie gaming

A well-defined art style, whether realistic, stylized, or pixel-based, guides asset complexity, rendering performance, and development timelines. Physically Based Rendering (PBR) ensures materials behave consistently under different lighting conditions. Style guides to maintain artistic consistency.

The vertical axes of textures and picture pixels is shown above, when sampling textures in shaders, that is from top to bottom, which is top-right corner. This is consistent with how most image file formats store pixel data, and with how most graphics APIs work (including DirectX, Vulkan, Metal, WebGPU, but not OpenGL). x,waveFactor.y-uv0.y);

NVIDIA Research: Learning and Rendering Dynamic Global Illumination with One Tiny Neural Network in Real-Time

Nvidia

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.
