Gamelogic Fx Dithering

Gamelogic Fx Dithering is a toolkit for adding dithering to your Unity projects.

It includes powerful post-processing effects, object-level shaders, and intuitive editor tools that let you design your own dither patterns — from classic Bayer matrices to modern blue-noise textures and artistic custom masks.

Use these shaders for stylized rendering, retro aesthetics, halftone-style shading, improved readability, or subtle film-grain-like surface detail. The included toolset makes it easy to prototype, fine-tune, and export patterns directly inside Unity.

Included is a simple outline effect, and a bunch of support shaders to enahnce dithering.

See online documentation: Documentation.

Features

🧪 Experimental: Supports AI Skills. 🧪

🎨 Post-Processing Dithering

• Texture-based dithering (full artistic control)
• Matrix-based dithering (quick iteration and experimentation)
• Grid-based dithering, including hex grid (for innovative looks)
• Adjustable quantization levels (per channel)
• Min/max dither bias and smoothness controls
• Works across the entire screen or with full-screen pipelines
• Can use UV map instead of screen coordinates to sample dithering texture or matrix

🎨 Object-Level Dithering Shaders

• Alpha dithering (texture bias) for transparent objects
• Alpha dithering (matrix bias) for ordered/Bayer effects
• Stable screen-space sampling
• Ideal for stylized transparency, animated fades, retro shading

🛠 Editor Tools

• Dither Pattern Designer: visualize matrix and grid bias patterns so it is easier to design attractive patterns.
• Dither Pattern Generator: build your own matrices or RGB patterns; export directly as textures.
• Pattern Texture Generator: create procedural patterns (noise, HSL maps, sine grids, Voronoi, etc.).
• Gradient Texture Generator: produce ramps, 1D/2D LUTs, and stepped gradients for stylized looks.

🎮 Demo Scenes

Included example scenes for:

• Built-in Render Pipeline
• Universal Render Pipeline (URP)

These scenes demonstrate recommended setups and serve as a quick starting point.

What You Can Achieve

• Retro/8-bit or 16-bit looks
• Stable stylized transparency
• Monochrome or color-quantized effects
• Pixel-art-style rendering (combined with pixelation)

❤️ Why This Package?

Gamelogic Fx Dithering combines artistic flexibility with technical robustness.

It’s suitable for real projects, prototyping, stylized rendering, and advanced shader pipelines — with clean code, pipeline-aware shaders, and editor tools designed for daily use.
