Package file structure

Overview of game resource organization in global and scene directories

The correct organization of game resources into "global" and "scene" directories is crucial not only for maintaining clarity but also for controlling the loading of game resources depending on whether they are needed in a "global" or "scene" context. This structured approach ensures that resources are loaded efficiently and only when required, which enhances the game’s performance.
