MK Glow is an artist-friendly, feature-rich and super fast performing post-processing effect, which simulates bright surface scattering of light. In addition to the bloom, some highly customizable extras, like lens surface, lens flare and glare are available. It is tweaked towards artists for an intuitive, adaptive and easy and workflow. This shader is compatible with the Built-in, Universal and High Definition Render Pipelines.

?THE PACKAGE?

⚡Main Features⚡

Bloom: Creates fringes of light extending from the borders of bright areas in an image.

Lens Surface: Apply a dirt and a diffraction texture, which fades in into the glow.

Lens Flare: Generate procedural lens flares including halo, ghosts and presets.

Glare: Creates glare light streaks, which fades into the glow based on a blending. Also presets are available.

Stylization: Fine tune the result in terms of quality and performance using a wide variety of options.

Blooming: Further enhance the glowing parts to give scene a more bloomy look.

Luma Scale: Mix relative luminance into the glow for a more stylized or realistic look.

Anamorphic: Morph the glow to create an anamorphic flair.

Resolution Scaling: Same outcome independent from the screen size and resolution.

Additional Shaders: Basic Sprite & UI shaders with emission are included.

Mobile Compatible: performing at a reasonable tradoff in terms of quality and performance.

✨Two intuitive workflows✨

Threshold: Make things glow based on the pixels brightness & threshold & emission.

Natural: No color cuttoff, no thresholding, just like real life, a very realistic behavior (Energy-Conserving), just raise the emission.
