Top 5 Optimization Tips from Building a Mobile Game #Shorts

Full Tutorial: https://youtu.be/7ioIHn1tmIM

Learn my top 5 optimization tips from building my latest mobile game! I boosted the fps in my game from barely playable in the Unity Editor to a solid 60fps 🚀 on most mobile devices!

These are not mobile-specific optimizations, and they don't all apply to every game type. Which optimization techniques will be most impactful for your game will vary depending on what kind of game you're making and how you've implemented it (this is discussed in the video as well).

If you're struggling with FPS in your game, this is a great starting point for which techniques you can use to optimize your game! There are WAY more than 5 optimization techniques, and not all of them may apply to every game type. These are the ones I found most beneficial when optimizing my game!

I hope this helps give you some guidance on how you may be able to boost the FPS in your game and have it run super smooth on your target platform and target hardware!
