- Frames for Different FPS:
- 20 FPS (low performance, mobile devices): Original graphics for 20 FPS (each frame is displayed for 50 ms).
- 60 FPS (medium performance, standard PCs and mobile devices): 3x more frames than at 20 FPS, meaning you need a new or interpolated frame for each frame to ensure smoother animation.
- 120 FPS (higher performance, modern monitors and gaming PCs): 2x more frames than at 60 FPS, ensuring even smoother animation and readiness for monitors with higher refresh rates.
- Graphics Quality:
- Low Quality (64x64 px textures):
- For mobile devices and older PCs: Lower resolution textures (64x64 px) help save space and ensure smooth performance on weaker devices.
- Mobile game version: Optimized smaller textures load and render faster.
- Medium Quality (128x128 px textures):
- For standard PCs and mid-range mobile devices: A balanced compromise between quality and performance.
- Medium performance: This texture size is ideal for devices with sufficient power to maintain a reasonable frame rate while offering better detail than 64x64 px.
- High Quality (256x256 px textures):
- For modern gaming PCs and high-resolution monitors (e.g., 1080p or higher): For higher FPS (60 FPS and 120 FPS), this texture size makes sense on more powerful devices.
- For maximum graphical detail: If players choose high FPS and high-quality graphics, this texture size provides a better visual experience.
- Low Quality (64x64 px textures):
- Recommended Combinations for Different Configurations:
- For mobile devices (e.g., Android):
- FPS: 20 FPS or 60 FPS (for better performance on weaker devices).
- Textures: 64x64 px to reduce memory and graphics demands.
- For standard PCs:
- FPS: 20 FPS or 60 FPS.
- Textures: 128x128 px or 256x256 px (depending on PC performance).
- For modern gaming PCs (high performance):
- FPS: 60 FPS or 120 FPS.
- Textures: 256x256 px for maximum quality on modern monitors.
- For mobile devices (e.g., Android):
- Approach to Supporting Different Versions:
- Optimization for various devices: It’s best to adjust graphics and FPS based on a device’s capabilities. If someone has an older phone or PC, they should use 64x64 px textures and 20 FPS. On powerful machines with modern monitors and graphics cards, 256x256 px textures and 120 FPS will be preferred.
- For the future: If you plan to support 120 FPS, ensure that your animations and textures are detailed enough to provide the best experience at higher FPS.
