This Stunning Shader Turns Unity's Default Quads into Butterflies

Another awesome project by Mirza Beig.

Mirza Beig masterfully plays with Unity shaders, and this is one of the most breathtaking. He made a shader that turns Unity's default quad into an animated butterfly, which can be instanced as thousands of particles with trails.

"An advantage to using particle systems is that you can control the spawning and behaviours for things like butterflies (and fish, birds...) easily. Vertex streams allow for properties to be read/used in the shader," he added.

You can even change the particles however you want.

If you are impressed, you should find inspiration on Beig's X/Twitter: in his glass refraction effect, hologram shader, cool VHS shader, glass simulation, painterly crystal from Kingdom Hearts, real-time caustics, and more.
