Alexander Ameye's personal blog at ameye.dev covers games, programming and design. Since 2023, 3 different Hacker News readers have linked it 8 times. No feed was found, so read it on the site itself.
Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link Alexander Ameye's notes on drawing outlines in a video game, using edge detection in rendering. One commenter calls the post excellent and says the rendered result looks like a comic book frame.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
My personal blog containing articles about Unity, games, shaders, graphics engineering, rendering, technical art and programming.
What Hacker News says?
That is excellent and the result can be very pleasing as this render in the article : https://ameye.dev/notes/rendering-outlines/edge-detection/co... It looks like a frame from dutch comic book Franka !

HN discussionVery nice post! Thanks for writing, I love how detailed it goes. I use box/gaussian blurs often, but for rendering outlines/highlights of objects. https://ameye.dev/notes/rendering-outlines/#blurred-buffer
