Custom shaders can be used with CanvasGroup to also apply effects like drop shadows or glows to a group of objects as a single one, greatly enhancing the flexibility of the 2D engine.

Because now the mipmap-level (the amount of "small-ness" of the texture) has a different use case we need to access it manually in the shaders rather than letting OpenGL handle that for us automatically. The cubemap filtering shader can be found here. If a collision occurs then the next free spot will be used.
