Everything is just one big texture. I export the rendered terrain from Blender as a RGBA image but with alpha value set to depth. The custom terrain shader uses the z-channel to draw water in lower areas of the level. The graphics backend rewrite took a while. However, the situation is now good. So it’s RGBZ.

All this work has resulted in significantly faster rendering times. A lot of the render state is now better cached, so less is done at render time.

Cel shading can be described as a technique that gives any 3D or 2D rendering a cartoonish or hand-drawn effect. A cell shader gives the appearance of a traditional drawing with a flatter surface and hard, unfinished edges. Since cel shading works by applying a shader to 3D models, you must create the models first.
