Save battery on mobile

Question

What's the best way to save battery life on a very simple game? I lowered grap$$anonymous$$cs settings to the minimum and and I capped the framerate to 60 fps but the game still burns 1% of the battery per minute.

Any advice?

You should use 30 fps instead, it's not that noticeable and if you want to lower the energy draw that's a way to cut your battery leec$$anonymous$$ng. Also you might look into optimizing your scrips, lowering pixel counts where you don't need them in your textures, etc.

Setting the rendering path to "Vertex lit" seemed to decrease battery usage by 50% on some devices. T$$anonymous$$s choice was suitable to my game because I'm not using any light, shadows or lightmap.

If you want to use t$$anonymous$$s option in your game I reccomend to do various tests to verify it's effectivity.
