To ensure old computers can't run it:

  • Turn off any kind of culling and add a bunch of random objects out of view
  • Overuse try/catch blocks (web developers will tell you this is good, it isn't)
  • Use Vulkan or DirectX 12, if your engine supports them.
  • If it's still running well, add some random loops somewhere that do nothing. Remember to turn off optimisation on your compiler, otherwise these will be optimised out.
  • You could also use custom allocation and make it randomly set blocks of memory to garbage data to cause random crashes.

To give graphic designers/artists a heart attack:

  • Use comic sans
  • Use colours that buzz against each other
  • Don't use anti-aliasing
  • Draw your art in MS Paint to make sure it isn't transparent.
