SCAN Shaders designed to create an oppressive atmosphere by severely limiting visibility. Instead of traditional lighting, the shader simulates a scanning device effect. Every two seconds, a horizontal update bar moves from top to bottom across the screen, briefly illuminating nearby surroundings before fading back into darkness.
Features:
- Severely reduced overall visibility
- Periodic scanning light effect every two seconds
- Horizontal illumination bar moving from top to bottom
- Brief environmental lighting during each scan cycle
- Designed to create tension and limited spatial awareness
- Experimental atmosphere-focused rendering
