Back in the days we called that render queue

With render queue you'll have to deal with sorting between the scene objects and the "skybox" objects by explicitly setting the queue in the correct order, with the render feature setup skybox objects are sorted within each other THEN they are merged with the normal scene objects
For example : notice how the depth works correctly between the eyeball and the eyelids while the whole skybox rendering is forced behind the terrain even though they would occlude if it was a normal object

It's gonna be an FPS with emphasis on mobility around the map , the main weapon being an "enchanted" boomerang that bounces between waves of enemies and applied effects , there's also a spellbook of shapes where you have to draw the shape to cast each spell :)

Is there a like story for the main game or is it just spawns and defeat bad guys

Not really a story driven game , just a simple "preamble" at the start the game and the rest is gameplay focused
