About this Skill

Write shader effects using coordinate spaces, UV math, texture sampling, dissolve, outlines, and Fresnel lighting.

Why we picked it

Provides a focused workflow, implementation patterns, and common failure checks for cross-engine shader programming. Pair it with the detected engine and any related systems required by the task.

What it helps with

  • Use when your game task needs cross-engine shader programming.

What this skill helps you build

Write shader effects using coordinate spaces, UV math, texture sampling, dissolve, outlines, and Fresnel lighting.

Original shader-programming instructions

Patterns in the upstream playbook

The entrypoint covers: Fragment basics: sample, tint, and combine; Scrolling UVs (animated texture) — frame-rate independent; Dissolve (threshold a noise map, glow the edge); Fresnel rim light (3D) — brighten glancing angles.

Original shader-programming instructions

Use it in your project

  1. Inspect the existing project

    Describe the desired behavior and share the relevant project files, engine version, and current failure or target result.

  2. Apply the focused playbook

    Write shader effects using coordinate spaces, UV math, texture sampling, dissolve, outlines, and Fresnel lighting.

  3. Verify in the matching runtime

    Run the project or workflow with its actual dependencies and check the changed behavior before accepting the result.

Shared collection installation

Install the complete upstream collection with its router and keep each skill’s bundled references, scripts, and assets. The dispatcher selects an engine and the smallest relevant task set; a member listing is a focused entry into that shared package.

CommandWhat it helps with
npx skills add gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skillsKeep the router and supporting skill folders available together.

Upstream installation guide

Before you use it

  • An existing or planned game and an Agent Skills-compatible coding agent. Pair engine-neutral concepts with the engine-specific entrypoints when writing code.
