## What it is
A Unity demo project showcasing a small boat racing game built with the Universal Render Pipeline. It serves as a learning resource and test bed for URP features like Shader Graph, custom render passes, and water rendering.

## Use cases
- learn how to use Unity Universal RP in a real project
- see examples of Shader Graph water shaders
- study a C# Jobs buoyancy system implementation
- learn custom ScriptableRenderPass techniques for water effects and caustics
- explore Cinemachine camera setups for racing games
- find a mobile-optimized low-poly Unity game example
- understand planar reflections via SRP callbacks

## When to choose
- you are learning Unity's Universal Render Pipeline features
- you need reference code for water rendering, buoyancy, or Shader Graph
- you want a complete small game vertical slice to study

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready game engine or framework
- you want a maintained game template for shipping products
- you don't use Unity or work outside C#/game development

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: game-engine, graphics, simulation, animation
- domain: graphics, tutorials, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform, game-engine
- tags: unity, universal-render-pipeline, shader-graph, demo-project, water-simulation, cinemachine, addressables, csharp-jobs, game-development
