It was briefly mentioned that this can be used for accessibility features, I would assume here you meant CVD support (Color Vision Difficiency). In general, filters that shift total screen pixels are filters to assist those who aren't vision impaired to see what we see. However, in practice, it is actually better to _only_ change the colors of things that are important - Pickups, enemy colors, etc. Unfortunately, the only real reason filters end up being the norm is largely because Accessibility is an after-thought. It becomes a lot easier when you set your base materials up to support this at the beginning of development. The reason for this is rather simple, but just because we are missing/mixing colors, doesn't mean we can't see bad ones. Purple skies, red grass, it becomes visually harder to see everything else in the game because we have to spend a lot more energy trying to interpret things we know the colors of, to the new palette. So the advice - Please only change colors, of things that are visually important to the player as gameplay relevant - not the rest of the screen. That's my little PSA.

I did something similar as well before I discovered that posterization exists! It can definitely work better in certain scenarios, but this solution is more flexible and can be adjusted in real time while having a set color palette can't.

I personally use a mix of HSV fiddling and a sampler cube, I think it gives me more control over the color without letting me absolutely destroy the game's visuals by accident.

I'd definitely look into the LAB color spaces (especially OKLAB) if you want to play around with posterizing more. LAB colorspaces, especially with posterization unevenly applied between the three color variables (different amounts for each, for example, or a different offset value (like phase shifting a sine wave, except it changes the points where the posterization starts instead)). It's one of the few that don't look too bad when unevenly posterized, in fact. There's also a set of sibling ofshoots, OKHSV and OKHSL that quantize nicely. But personally I like them better when only quantizing one or two of the variables.

I imagine it's just a broad rule of thumb and not a "you must do this in all your art and it's wrong if you don't", but more an easy means to make something look more interesting and more "sunlit" than just changing brightness and no other parameter. Obviously different styles will call for different methods.

As a video editor, posterization sets off my constant fear of visible banding from running into the limits of the 8-bit color space. :P

imo posterization looks great in brighter visuals like daylight landscapes because there's more color and it's easier for the shader to pick it up. But for visuals that tend to be dark, especially in video games, I really hate it. In scenes that are very dark, even a small difference in value/tint of a certain area of the screen can change your perspective of the dark like "oh, there's something there" but when it's posterized, it gets locked in the closest color allowed by the effect, which makes things harder to look at. So basically, it's a cool shader but most people want to see more color.

7:55 first games that come to mind are Lethal Company, Broken Reality, and ULTRAKILL (ultrakill's posterization is dependent on graphics settings and also has a custom color pallette feature)

in some cases, also using dithering would make a better look. there’s a video in the “HTTP 203” youtube series about dithering, and a companion blog post, which could be interesting to you! I do think though that the banding not using dithering gets you is aesthetically pleasing sometimes, so maybe you’d wanna keep it as-is- just a thought :) great video!

It's used heavily in NieR Automata. The EMP attacks in route B (or C, I forgot) disable parts of your controls and introduce visual glitches. The posterization effect is one of those glitches. Very cool stuff.

as a mathematician, i think that the distinction between color model and color space is absurd

When you render floats into an 8-bit buffer, you automatically get posterization, which is an artifact I've spent plenty of time trying to remove with dithering.

Topographical maps are basically a map with a z axis rendered via posterized steps.

You can get a similar effect on Web pages by playing with the filters in CSS. It's a superset of the CSS metaball effect, but you're also playing with other parameters like colors & filter areas of effect.

Oh I was recently experimenting with just this very idea. I was inspired by how original Doom's palette breaks up levels of depth in to different brightnesses to give the appearance of dark regions having lower detail where you can only maybe see some contours of objects and textures. I added a bit of randomness to the brightness channel per pixel to kinda fake temporal dithering while still keeping the effect of shadowy stuff being low detail and indistinct. Obviously would have to be used in a very stylized kind of game. I know lo-fi horror is kinda overdone but yeah it kinda matches this perfectly. :p

Generally speaking its much easer to get good quality visuals by just deciding on and creating a limited pallete, crisp edged art style, then apply a very simple lighting model rather than apply a quantization effect to one of the smooth lighting models and more "realistic" art. The control of the final scene part is a big part of why special effect shaders like this don't get used as much, since you have to design your assets with this look in mind anyway.

@@pokefreak2112 I looked at some gameplay now (I only watched the trailer before). It does look similar to what I did, but keep in mind that you do not need posterization to sample a palette. I've done similar things before without posterization, but I can't really tell what exactly they used now. You'd need to use Nvidia Nsight to tell, but I don't have the game nor really want to spend time on trying to figure out how they did it.

Imo for this type of effect in a game im frankly of the opinion it would probably be better just to use either specially made greyscale or red+green textures with a lookup table, an upshot to that version would be quite a bit better performance since you have to do less math, i guess the downside though is that it would take a bit longer to make the textures since you have to convert them to the right color format first which would involve mapping the pixel colors in the source image to UV offsets of their corresponding colors in the lookup table and idk if theres a pre existing tool that can do that...

@nitro-gen-studios

Simply put, no. Sampling a texture is way slower than doing a few simple (stuff that's not trig functions, sqrt, etc.) math operations. Also the palette generation pass is barely noticable in terms of framerate drop, if at all. The only noticable slowdown (0.33ms) is adding more palette layers, as rendering them into their seperate sub-viewport is quite inefficient, but currently there isn't a better way to do it without. Someone recommended the use of stencil buffers, Godot currently doesn't support it yet. Also the entire point of generating palettes in realtime is that you can change it in realtime. That is simply impossible to do the way I did it with a lookup table.

Isn't that a cell Shader, that is used frequently?

Kind of? cel shading is a material shader generally whereas posterization is a post process effect. Cel shading kind of uses posterization as a portion of it but it usually only uses 2 values (light and shadow) and the adds an outline afterwards

@@menaced. Correct! I did add an outline shader in my game because combining the two effects looks really nice.

I think hylics uses this

Hylics by @masonlindroth looks really similar to this

Yes, but I don't think it actually uses posterization. I think they just drew their assets to look that way.
