navigator.gpu| Constraint | Strategy |
|---|---|
| No local file access | Asset bundling, CDN |
| Tab throttling | Pause when hidden |
| Mobile data limits | Compress assets |
| Audio autoplay | Require user interaction |
| Type | Format |
|---|---|
| Textures | KTX2 + Basis Universal |
| Audio | WebM/Opus (fallback: MP3) |
| 3D Models | glTF + Draco/Meshopt |
| Phase | Load |
|---|---|
| Startup | Core assets, <2MB |
| Gameplay | Stream on demand |
| Background | Prefetch next level |
| ❌ Don't | ✅ Do |
|---|---|
| Load all assets upfront | Progressive loading |
| Ignore tab visibility | Pause when hidden |
| Block on audio load | Lazy load audio |
| Skip compression | Compress everything |
| Assume fast connection | Handle slow networks |
