Technically, you can use shader atomic increments to account for all the rays on each frame if needed. This can be partially achieved using a bindless resource model where all required resources are available directly from the shader code on GPU without explicit CPU-side bindings.

About shaders. For most game developers, shaders are this scary monster that presents itself with such a complexity that it seems out of reach. In reality, shaders are quite simple by default and just get more complex the more you add to them. In this case, the UV coordinate (for reading the texture).

Spent some time tinkering with shaders. It was fun but also hard to come up with something actually usable in the game. I also tried distortion for the bottom layer but UV wrapping is a problem because the tiles are in a texture atlas. Putting tiles in an array texture instead of an atlas would give me more options.

Shaders are used to create many effects, like “water”, “fire” and more. UVs are also called texture coordinates and they let you map textures on your objects. You’re basically saying to the computer: “hey, I want this texture drawn from here to here”. Shaders Theory. Shader Example.
