Advanced 2D Shader Effects in Unity - Part 2

Explore advanced 2D shader effects in Unity using Shader Graph in this 20-minute video tutorial. Learn to create 2D glass with warping and refraction, implement a magnifying glass effect, and design a heat haze using Sprite Unlit Line Renderer. Discover techniques for ripple warping, raindrops using VFX Graph, and custom lighting with Sprite Custom Lit Shaders. Master per-object lighting effects for multiple puzzle pieces, develop a 2D fog effect, and craft a light shimmer effect. Download the demo project and follow along using Unity 2022 LTS or Unity 6, with slight UI differences noted for the VFX Graph Output node in Unity 6.
