Performance evaluation for most software products is a very scientific process. First, we determine the maximum/minimum supported performance metrics, such as the allowed memory usage, acceptable CPU consumption, and the number of concurrent users. Next, we perform load testing against the application in scenarios with a version of the application built for the target platform, and test it while gathering instrumentation data. Once this data is collected, we analyze and search it for performance bottlenecks. If problems are discovered, we complete a Root Cause Analysis (RCA), and then make changes in the configuration or application code to fix the issue and repeat it.
Although game development is a very artistic process, it is still exceptionally technical. Our game should have a target audience in mind, which can tell us what hardware limitations...
