Sprite Glow/Outline Shader Breakdown - This shader uses a signed distance field (SDF), stored in the alpha channel of the sprite’s texture to create an outline or glow effect around the sprite. We can also produce “in-lines” or glow effects inside the sprite and have properties to control the colours and width of these outline/glow effects.

Quick Game Art Tip - Vertical Dissolve/Teleport - Here's a vertical dissolve/teleport effect with a bit of vertex displacement. I always wanted an effect that looks a bit like particles are coming out of a dissolve, but couldn't get it to work with real particles (emission from texture doesn't like realtime texture writing). But this way it looks pretty cool too :D

Starmancer - A tragedy on Earth forced humanity to the stars. You awake in a damaged space station, in a strange solar system populated with other factions that have formed alliances, colonized worlds, and developed new technologies.
Experience a world where you have have your own story that impacts the universe. Trade with other factions, perform missions, make friends, and repel invaders.
Design Stations
You find yourself in a strange Solar System with no choice but to gather any resources you can find and repair what’s left of your station. Scavenge derelict stations, trade, or strip mine nearby asteroids to restore your colony.
Make the station your own. Paint every wall. Change the tiling in every room. Place furniture, rugs, paintings, posters, windows, and curtains. Design a run-down mining colony, a lively space port, or a fancy resort. Force the low-class colonists to live in the dirty depths of the station, and create a utopia for the high class residents.
Manage Colonists
Grow bodies in bio-tanks and assign them a consciousness. Supply your colonists with food, water and a breathable atmosphere. Give them jobs such as doctor, miner, or farmer.
Colonists have feelings. They get upset when their friends are accidentally jetissioned out of air locks. If you're not careful, they'll opening rebel and attempt to destroy you. Keep them happy, or supress dissent by force.
Don't worry you can always grow more humans.
