Shots never go out of play, there's just been invisible bounds till now. I added the reactive barrier to kind of give a reason for that, instead of just invisible walls!

That's the goal for sure! The shader is most visible on this map, tying into the moon base vibe, other maps have it even more open feeling and reactive to when the player or ball approaches the bounds. I tried some other stuff but I think this approach is the best catch-all for all the arenas so far

Happy #WishlistWednesday, it's good to be back! I've been hard at work, and I recently created an arena bounds shader to help with showing the court limits on maps without walls, check it out! Wishlist Forklift Basketball on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4598450/... #indiedev #indiegame
