LogInCheck out Branta Games' Godot noise effect that can only be seen in motion and grab the asset to experiment with in your own project.
A few weeks ago, Jack of Branta Games released an intriguing video featuring a unique effect: objects animated on a random field of black-and-white pixels are only visible when they move. While the concept isn't entirely new, as Jack was inspired by Chris Long's recent videos on this phenomenon in computers from the '80s, the developer took it further by trying different versions and ultimately turning it into an additive cyclic noise shader for Godot.
Naturally, he realized that this persistence of vision effect could be a perfect fit for a horror game (more like a "Nobody will believe you" game), where you can never get a picture of your enemies. You can check out MOTUS here, but of course, there's another use case that immediately comes to mind:
You can learn more about how this effect works and its connection to the Pulfrich effect in another Branta Games' video, and also check out Chris Long's videos, which go into topics like dinosaur vision, migraines, different screen resolutions, and text and color effects:
