GTE Studio
>RETRO 3D EDITOR
A dedicated environment for building low-poly geometry. Because modern rendering pipelines have too many pixels and not enough soul.
// HARDWARE_LIMITATIONS
Architectural Constraints
- [!] Texture Limit: 256x256 pixels
- [!] Color Depth: 3bpc (125 Colors)
- [!] Geometry: ~2048 vertices per object
Deprecated Concepts
The following features violate the integrity of the PSX aesthetic and have been permanently disabled at the engine level.
// DEVELOPMENT_ROADMAP
TELEMETRY IS ASYNCHRONOUS. STATE UPDATED MANUALLY BETWEEN COMPILATION CYCLES.
Wetware Operator
Primary biological unit responsible for engine maintenance, C++ compilation tolerance, and infrastructure deployment.

// VISUAL_TELEMETRY

Visual output from Texture Mode: A composition of two overlapping source images subjected to a rigid 125-color (3bpc) quantization lookup table.

Alpha build concept: Primitive geometry (cube) output displayed inside the pixel-art framework.

Initial prototype: 3D cube rendered within the legacy pixel-art UI.
