Is the final display a pre-rendered animation or is it actually rendering the cube at runtime?

Runtime
It's surprisingly easy to do, just a single script that re-routes the rendering to a RenderTexture and attaches that RenderTexture to a UI element

Makes sense! That also opens up some fun possibilities to do animations based on gameplay (e.g. some tweened spinning or stretching on point gain)

@keymaster The final display won't be a red cube, but some representation of the actual pickups, so it might just be a picture in the end.
The red cube is the placeholder pickup and the client wanted to see it in the UI too and the client is king

All hail the client :D

@keymaster This is one of my better clients TBH, good, clear feedback on each update
As usual, some of their requests are a little impenetrable, but as long as they're trivial to implement, I just do what I'm told, lol

So this is all NDA atm, but will we eventually see what this is all for? Or are you not even allowed to say that? :p

@keymaster Yeah, no, it's unannounced, but it's really just a small arcadey mobile game
It'll be out on iOS and Android for free, with with ads
