## Highlights

- Character animation pipeline: defmesh fork + Blender Python exporter, GPU skinning with tracks baked into a texture, and a custom fp16 binary mesh format to reduce asset size.

- 3D character controller: movement, jump, and extra step-up force for small obstacles (stairs, stones).

- In-game 3D editor using ImGui: create objects, edit properties, move/rotate/scale.

- ECS for 3D world setup.

- Forward+ lighting with shadows and fog.

## Assets
