- Implement game features and functionality using TypeScript (latest standard), following best practices for well-typed and well-documented code.
- Integrate static art, animations (Spine), image sequences, particles, and corresponding audio triggers using libraries like PIXI.js.
- Use browser developer tools to track FPS, memory, CPU/GPU usage, and draw calls; prioritize and fix bugs with utmost urgency.
