I can't believe I'm saying this but after 7 long years, I finally finished The Bells Arietta, my Zelda Fan Project✨

This project was a long bumpy road, but I'm glad I stuck with it until now!

Check out the trailer here!

As requested by some users, next HAZE update will expose the temporal accumulation blending, which can be reduced in order to address trailing artifacts from moving lights (like flashlights etc) ✨

HAZE is still 50% off, so it's a great chance to try it out if you haven't!

🌫️HAZE is 50% OFF!🌫️

HAZE is part of the new year's sale on the unity asset store, so if you're curious about trying it out, this is probably the best time to get it! ✨

Volumetric fog and lighting for only 16.10€ is a freaking steal! 👀

Go and get it while it's hot!!! 👇👇👇

After all, why not?

Why shouldn't I stylize raymarched clouds? 👀

These past few cloudy days inspired me to play around more with clouds again ☁☁☁

@prozdishere.bsky.social Holy cow, I just read a few comments on your latest (last) twitter post and I understand now why people don't like twitter anymore, like what the hell was that-

Sorry you had to go through stuff like that man. You're awesome and I hope you have a better time here!♥️

On that note, let's also *dive* in another favorite subject of mine:

💧 Water shaders 💧

Here's another behind-the-scenes 🧵 on the tech-art behind our water visuals in HERDLING:

What started as a small personal project to make another animated shot turned into a small full-fledged 2-minutes short film!
Almost done! Stay tuned :)

WIP new environment scene...You might recognize it! (its missing a building)
#WIP #GameArt #UE5
A 3d render in UE5. Several dirt paths converge and go towards the center of the image, bricks line part of the path. The grassy terrain,dotted with flowers and rocks, leads into a peak dropping off into the ocean which can be seen behind it. Near the peak is a pine tree. A bright blue sky with clouds.

You can use the depth buffer with a bump offset function to mask sprites by depth and conform them to the geometry. This is especially convenient for dynamic fake light, UI elements, character damage effects… #realtimeVFX #UnrealEngine #gamedev #vfx

My video tutorial on creating a simple volumetric fog shader in URP is finally out for everyone to watch!🎉

This should be a gentle introduction into volume raymarching and a good starting point for some really cool effects 🌫

So I always was a bit sad that nintendo toned down the clouds in Tears of the Kingdom compared to the first teasers⛅

They were so PRETTY- Always wondered how they made them and just had a shower thought yesterday and I'd say I got pretty close hehe!✨

Funny story: Journey had no automatic shadows. I painted them all by hand. The shadow texture was not hi-res. To get the iconic sunset columns to cast sharp shadows, I made sure that they aligned with the pixel grid of the texture. Here you can see the shadow map I painted.
The sunset tunnel moment from the game Journey, where the player slides from right to left past columns throwing shadows towards the camera. The bright glowing sun sets behind the distant mountain. The scene is tinted in glowing warm shades. This is a black and white texture I hand painted to map shadows into the downhill scene in the game Journey. Most games generate these textures automatically, but I did it by hand because we did not have the tools to do so during Journey's development. A close up of my hand painted shadow texture, showing that the shadows of the columns in the sunset tunnel were aligned with the pixels of the texture to achieve maximum sharpness in game, despite the resolution of the texture being very small for the amount of area it was covering.
