Core Philosophy

Monolithic MonoBehaviour architectures turn Unity projects into unmaintainable spiderwebs. When every script references every other script via GetComponent, FindObjectOfType, or static singletons, changing a player's health logic breaks the UI, sound manager, and save system simultaneously. Scalable Unity architecture relies on ScriptableObject-driven architecture (Ryan Hipple pattern), event-driven decoupling, Single Responsibility components, and data-oriented design (DOTS/ECS) for performance-critical systems.
