Heyo,
So I have been in the industry for something around 2 years right now. Usually, I add my stuff to my portfolio site but I wanted to share my work from this week here too. A couple of months ago I saw the dither-based shield, so last Tuesday I decided to make something similar. Stylized Water Shield - with style like watercolors.
Goals? Do it as cheap as possible (but try to make it look good). Using only dithering, no other ways to make it transparent. , zero additional heavy particles. I’ve made my own functions to achive a better look with dithering and here’s the result
Gifs from three days to show the adjustments and overall ovedraw showcase. Rn system costs 0.02ms, but I will merge all the separated emitters into one, so maybe there will be a way to achive 0.01ms total.
