Hi, I want to participate. I don’t have enough time this month but I will try.
Upd. My final work:
It’s so hard to generate an idea. I have been suffering for 3 weeks
As soon as I have an idea, a day later I think it’s bad. Is it a creative crisis?
Hah, I thought i was the only one. Having the exact same issue. I want to participate but my ideas keep getting bigger and bigger until the point I have to drop it or don’t like it anymore.
Yeah, now I’m thinking that yesterday idea with the ice laser from the ice flower is not so good. I need something better
I have an idea to make a beautiful ice explosion with the spikes. Then I will see.
Made an ice material in SD and Parallax crater multiplying parallax with opacity texture:
Just remade my old screen space ice shader using a “render feature”.
Looks great so far Hovl!
The ice looks much better now that it feels less like a screen space crack overlay and more like the bright spots are contouring the edges and center of energy. The ground effects are looking good too but I think the screen overlay seems a bit stretched/distorted?
I’m also losing the read on the original parallax craters since its so bright now, maybe shift towards more teal/green before going straight to white? Maybe it’s just a post-process thing.
Just some ideas, excited to see more progress!
Super late but hope to join last minute on 65 and start soon too
Thank you. You idea with color is awesome. I wish I had more time to change the effect, but unfortunately I only have 1 day before a month-long trip. So tomorrow I want to quickly put everything together in a sequencer. The brightness is so big because I changed BiRP to URP to use a screen space shader and didn’t set up the Bloom effect. I will edit it.
