A little bit late with the updates and posting an older video update, but we’re not at just 320,000 polygons anymore. I can easily draw 2,000,000 polygons per second now.

Of course, it’s not production ready yet, meaning I won’t be starting the actual game project anytime soon until there is ZERO crashes. And this sumbitch crashes. LOL
