The tips cover: (1) using interfaces instead of concrete MonoBehaviors to reduce tight coupling, (2) writing unit tests enabled by interface-based design, (3) separating logic from MonoBehaviors into plain C# classes, (4) moving configuration into ScriptableObjects so designers can tweak values without code changes, (5) isolating input control flow with events, and (6) using a generic static registry to track dynamic game objects like enemies. Each tip is demonstrated through step-by-step refactoring of a simple player-weapon-enemy example, showing how small structural choices early on prevent painful rewrites later. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
