Many friends associate post-effects with AAA 3D games, but in reality, their application is also extensive in 2D game development. Properly utilizing post-effects can significantly enhance the visual quality of a 2D game by several levels. You can also drag the material into the module’s material slot in the editor.

Numbers are using debug (numbers on release are lower, but when I started optimizing, Godot had problems running on release, so it's difficult to compare). Re-written most shaders to reduce VGPR usage, thus improve occupancy.
