Gem shader 💎✨ Trying to simulate somewhat accurate refraction/reflections. Might have the maths wrong tbh, hard to tell - but looks good enough~ #gamedev #shaders #unity3d #madewithunity

Succeeded to combine @cyanilux.bsky.social grass guide and @acerola.gg chunking method. I knew nothing about procedural grass at the beginning of the last week and now I can fill my landscapes with pretty grass blades. Learned a ton of things, thanks guys ! #gamedev #madewithunity #unity3D #techart

I followed this amazing guide by @cyanilux.bsky.social to create my game's grass fields: www.cyanilux.com/tutorials/gp... it works, it's beautiful, and it performs very well!!

🧵 breakdown thread of the Halo energy shield vfx! (there's a couple approaches you could take for this, and a lot of optimisations possible for each part, so take this more as a general 'approach' than a specific step-by-step!) 1/5

Feel like I haven't shared anything in a while - probably because progress has been pretty slow on my current project. Might try posting more WIP stuff 👀 #gamedev #unity3D #madewithunity

Dungeon. I really need to get back to this and make more tiles and scenes :D
3D render of a tiny dungeon that appears to be made of plasticine or clay. There's a couple of goblins and slimes, scattered golden coins, spike tiles, torches and plants.

Quick and dirty test for some TotK-inspired "fluid" motion on volumetric height fog ☁ Rendering the sphere on a buffer with top-down projection and using that buffer on a custom RT that displaces and blends it with itself in order to leave a distorted trail #gamedev #unity3d #madewithunity
