Improving Player Experience by Optimizing Energy Efficiency
Join Indie Game Developer and Creative Director Ashe Foltin, Co-Founder of Bold Beetle Games and creator of Dung Slinger, for a 120-minute hands-on workshop exploring how to build more energy-efficient games that reach more players and deliver a better player experience.
As games scale across cloud, console, mobile, and lower-end hardware, efficiency helps your game run on more devices, reduces heat noise, improves battery life, and expands your global audience.
What you’ll leave with:
Understanding how energy efficiency affects player experience and distribution
A clear understanding of where energy is used in your game
Practical optimization strategies you can apply immediately
A step-by-step action plan tailored to a real game example
Tools to make your game more scalable and accessible
The workshop includes a focused breakdown of a real game’s systems—covering rendering, physics, and asset usage—followed by a guided exercise where participants create their own implementation roadmap.
Ideal for game developers, technical designers, and indie creators who want to build more efficient, future-ready games without sacrificing performance or creativity.
