Ok, one more quick vid to show how big of an effect the fake multiple-scattering blur is having on the overall visuals. Heck, even on the audio too! #gamedev #unity3d #madewithunity - ThreadSky

Also, just in case and while I mention it in the alt text, the whole aesthetics and rose petals are in reference to @expedition33.bsky.social, and the music is straight up the song from the game's main menu

Lots of beautiful fog in the game (among other stuff) 😅

it's like the ONE thing that makes fog look like real fog, it rules so hard

I know right? I got sick of crisp sun rays and silhouettes, I now just wanna blur things up

andrea.dahnberg.se•9 hours ago

it’s so interesting how it’s really just a depth-based bloom, since bright things get more blurry

halisavakis.com•9 hours ago

Not even really depth-based; it's just regular bloom (even using Unity's passes) and I just adjust the scattering during the upscale passes based on the fog density. There was some brute-force trial and error for the compositing logic, but it's a silly approach overall

hell yeah, that’s tech art life, hacking shit together

is it using fog's density to interpolate between raw color and blurry color buffer?

halisavakis.com•3 hours ago

The fog's density is used during the bloom upsampling to drive the scattering (more density -> more scattering)

In compositing I'm essentially blending the fog with the blurry color buffer; that essentially works because I have the "bloom" threshold at 0, so it just blurs everything

I was looking at the older posts about this and I have to say I LOVE the grainy look that comes with the fog in the different still-shots !

Thanks! :D
