i've been waiting for something like this for so long, all your works are really awesome and interesting

Of all the things you could have done with your time, I for one appreciate that you made this video, made me smile in the moments that you did what would not be sane to do and go the extra mile for this clip. That's love for the job right there! All the best to you pal.

this has been super helpful. i'm currently trying to implement dithering on a 2-bit color system and i think i can see a way forward using this method

Tbf, at least my channel has a nice healthy growth as opposed to the ridiculous spikes other channels get when they're least prepared for it. As long as people like you enjoy them, I'm content =)

the Patreon fakeout at the end was REALLY GOOD

This is an amazing tutorial and walkthrough of how you arrived at the solution but goddamn I think the dithering by youtube compression.

I barely understood anything The bitrate killed himself everytime you switched from the game to the editor But that is on of the best videos i've watched this month, thanks

there's a game called Critters for Sale that has this art style however they've also applied unique effects in addition to some video it seems? I'm wondering how you could apply this effect to a video recording like they did?

Such a great video!

Yes, you could use the difference between the sampled noise and the fragment colour (instead of the comparison in this shader) you can choose from an arbitrary palette. Would be interesting to see the results!

Is this doable in Godot ?

@Madalaski

Yeah definitely, the shader code is all the same. Just the effect of exporting different bits of information to the different channels might need a bespoke approach,

Interesting questions... what specific games art styles are patented? I wasn't aware you could patent an art style, and thought you could only patent the process in which you create that art style. If you create the same art style using another technique that doesn't encroach on the process they patented then it wouldn't be a patent breach. Patents are based on technical specifications not the look of something.

it's very nice shader graphics

If you're interested in how I animated the code writing in this video, check out my GitHub where I've released a (pre-pre-pre-alpha) version of the Code Animator I wrote for it. It's made in Unity and uses TextMeshPro, not unlike my TMP tutorial from a few months ago! github.com/Madalaski/CodeAnimator

Does this work with URP?

i dont understand what do i need to create

Thats so awesome! I was beginning to make my own attempts to recreate this effect too and got quite far, but got totally stuck with the dithering. So thanks! Also I very much enjoy your use of code animator, I saw you post about that on twitter. Awesome stuff, you mentioned you'd be making it downloadable in your next video? No rush tho :D

@@Madalaski initially someone else on the open project (unity’s open source initiative) was using a roberts cross sampling method. That led to some “wandering ants” effect so once we realized sobel was a thing that was the solution.

I am currently doing my Master in Games Engineering and I have no clue how you got so profcient in writing shaders. I know the math on a okay level, but the things you do are extremely technical and would take me weeks or months of frustration to find out/or not being able to do it at all (I shiver just when thinking about every badly documented Unity Function, bug, and lack of math knowledge to do it). I once wanted to do Phyiscs Calculation (stars) on a 2D texture and map it on the skybox and i couldn't make it work :/ like that

If you're already working on your Masters then trust me, you have the ability to learn how to do this. At the end of the day, what I learnt during my Master's degree is not often used in my day-to-day job as a Gameplay Programmer, but the skills I learnt in how to understand complex problems and use the resources at my disposal are used all the time. Even in this video, most of what I'm talking about is adapted from other (imo "worse") tutorials mixed in with what Pope said he did in his own Devlogs. The knowledge is out there, you just have to keep at it!

​@@Madalaski Thanks for the response and the nice words! My current situation is: hey, I want to learn HRDP finally and make a pixel shader + crosshatch for my university project/game in HDRP, shouldn't be that hard, right?? After 4 intensive days I am still figuring stuff out == searching how Unity implemented it; I learned a lot, but am now behind every other course I have. Like how to implement in HDRP a stupidly easy sobel convolution (thanks to you and some other videos I now know) I totally agree that it's possible and that 99% of the tutorials copy from the next adding some of their ideas until you get to Unity itself, which also copied stuff etc., but my semester is so terribly packed with courses that when getting stucked is a huge problem. But like you said, I just have to learn to use my resources, so stepping back a little, prioritizing things and just do it, less whining :D I just watched your Advanced Pixel Tutorial-Like video and I think you can totally feel my frustration with Unity and their "Documentation". It could be so much easier, someone has just to tell me how and where...

And by the way, you may not be so aware, but it's very hard to be at your IT level. In IT, we're always surrounded by people who no-life their subject, are very advanced and intelligent, and have degrees, so we forget how far we've come ourselves and forget about the 50% that dropped out etc. It's like Counterstrike: the better you play, the better opponents you get.

@@HansPeter-gx9ew well something that I should stress is that your course should always take priority. Don't shirk off your coursework! Your personal projects and portfolio will always be waiting for you but your deadlines won't wait! The other thing is uh maybe hold off on HDRP. It's no secret that I'm actively avoiding Unity at the moment but the recent Cities Skylines release is a pretty good indicator that Unity's HDRP features are pretty awful for releasing games, and are really hard to scale back for lower or mid-end machines, despite the fact that they've been in development for years.

I know my fair share of people who dropped out of my course but I also knew people who struggled more but worked harder and relied on their fellow students (myself included) to understand better. But I would also counter-argue that it sometimes difficult to estimate how much more learning you have to get to a higher level of knowledge and it might be less than you think.

I blurred it cuz I don't wanna bad mouth other developers. Tho the decision likely came from higher ups. There are plenty of examples (not the game being patented tho just mechanics within the game) but I guess the one I'm fine with pointing you towards is how Konami patented mini-games in loading screens for 20 or so years which is a big reason why games have never really had them.

You're not wrong to be fair but there's always a lesson to be learned. Here, it's that artistic techniques are just as important as programming techniques. Pope worked hard to make sure that their game was not only readable when playing but also when advertised and they did that by making sure there were lots of different faces for the edge filter, lots of flat light and dark areas so that they could be distinguished, plus different noise types and particles to brush up the scene. Unfortunately, I'm no artist, plus it's not that kind of tutorial but it's certainly not impossible to think and plan around this and you'll be a better game developer for it!
