Hello everyone! I came to a bit of a wall with the video, in the meantime I decided to properly clean up and release my dissolve shader.
https://shaunjs.itch.io/dissolve-shader
As a commercial work, it is free for everyone who pledges $20+. If you head over to this page you should be able to link an itch account to your patreon account to verify your identity! Neat huh?
This is a bit experimental, I don't know if itch/patreon verifies that you are a pledger or that you have paid at least one time. I'm guessing based on how Patreon seems to work generally it doesn't. So this sort of thing will be an experimental act of trust until somebody ruins it I suppose!
Also I like the model I used previously for my Platformer asset, whereby I created a tutorial you could watch freely, or pay for access. I'm tempted to follow this up with a tutorial at some point if you guys are interested. For now it's just $5, which given I offer most of my stuff for free or PWYW I know is higher than normal but I feel is fair for the work and knowledge involved in making it.
It'll make its way to the GameMaker Marketplace too if you prefer having it in your library.
I think I've worked out how to proceed with the music video, but after testing some stuff I've had to rethink a bit of the content. More on that tomorrow!
