Egor Nikolaev - Production Notes
Egor Nikolaev
Proposed by Jan Mróz
Visit resource ↗Description
Egor Nikolaev's Production Notes is a technical-art blog at enikolaev.com/blog documenting Unity tooling and honest production writeups from shipping games.
Posts cover scene readability analysis, OKlab color workflows, URP diagnostic techniques, and other rendering topics aimed at production-minded developers. Content assumes intermediate Unity and rendering familiarity.
Articles are free on the blog; writing emphasizes practical diagnostics and clear breakdowns rather than step-by-step beginner tutorials.
