This week I’ve got a wild idea: boss monsters are coming to the game! Working on the intro scene where the creature shows up to mess with the player’s base

Example from a real project - the building UI made with Defold GUI follows a 3D game object. A small positioning delay is left on purpose to make it look smoother.

I'm working on a very simple scene for Defold to show example of movement + mouse to look around in 3D, used FreeStylized
