The final tutorial takes the same data-driven pattern from Tutorial 1 and Tutorial 2 into 3D. Duke's last adventure sends him underground: Crypt Walk, a first-person dungeon of stone corridors where the tea cups have invaded his coffee break. He hunts them through the maze and fires coffee beans to smash them, while the walls box him in. The headline difference from the 2D tutorial is what happens at runtime — instead of sprites in a Scene, each element becomes a GPU-rendered Model under a perspective camera with lighting. You author the same way; the runtime renders it in 3D.
