The artist utilized vertex colors to manipulate each brick individually.
A Reddit user and Game Developer known as Arnklit has unveiled a cool-looking recreation of Harry Potter's magical brick wall entrance that leads to Diagon Alley in the books and movies. According to the artist, the entire wall is just a single model with each brick's position being embedded in the vertex colors, allowing to manipulate each brick individually in the vertex shader. The entire simulation was set up in Godot, a free and open-source 2D and 3D game engine.
