Chapter 5. Starting to Look Like an Actual Game

- Adding an additional camera for extra features
- Getting collision shape bounds from a static model
- Adding basic shadows
Models usable and ready to deploy with LibGDX
We can import models in a few types of file such as Wavefront (OBJ), as we explained in the Exporting section of Chapter 4, Preparing Visuals, which is a basic kind of file type that may or may not contain everything we need ...
