CRYENGINE
summary
A partial port of Robinson runs on an S7 Edge at about 45 fps (Nexus 6P / Adreno fails), after ripping out SDL GL init and creating native Vk surfaces and swapchains; Vulkan early-adopter problems include four descriptor tables per stage, missing texture formats and SNORM targets, and depth-format quirks (D16 fallback). To hit bandwidth limits the GBuffer collapses three targets into one alternating-pixel micro-GBuffer and HDR precision is reduced; shader toolchain moves from HLSLCC to DXC, four engineers spend ~one month to get a working deferred, physically‑based renderer, but stereo VR would drop to ~20 fps.
