Compare AVIF, WebP and PNG based on perceptual quality

Original applied analysis · Practical browser-game engineering · First published 23 October 2026

The practical problem

Compression ratio is only useful if the game logo, thin UI text and illustration gradients survive at acceptable quality.

Implementation protocol

Export the same crop using a controlled encoder and several quality settings, evaluate at 100% and 200% view and measure decoded performance on a low-end mobile device.

Worked scenario

A 55 KB file with unreadable white lettering is less useful than a 75 KB file whose character and label remain sharp; inspect important semantic details.

What could go wrong

Comparing different crop dimensions can misattribute savings to a codec.

Acceptance criteria

Keep dimensions identical and include browser support in the release decision.
