# Godot 2D Global Illumination Demo

![Preview Image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/samuelbigos/godot_2d_global_illumination/master/promo/header.png)

This is a demo of 2D global illumination implemented in the Godot game engine. I made it because I didn't find any examples of this sort of 2D rendering in Godot, and no examples in other engines that had publicly available code.

I make no claim that all the code here is written from scratch by me, or that I came up with the algorithms used. I referenced a lot of Shadertoy projects when writing the global illumination and Jump Flood algorithms (to create the Voronoi diagram), and initial ideas and concepts were drawn from work other people had shared on Reddit and other game development communities.

## Using this in your game

Feel free to re-use as much code from here as you want (as per the MIT license) in your own projects.

However, at this stage, to make use of this in an actual game will require a deep understanding of the algorithms involved and lots of tweaking and fiddling to make things work. I do plan to continue developing this to make it as plug-and-play as possible, but for now it serves as more of a demo and reference for those looking to implement this sort of rendering technology in their game.

## Implementation

The demo uses the Jump Flood algorithm to efficiently generate a Voronoi diagram (which stores the nearest surface for every pixel). The Voronoi diagram is then converted into a distance field.

In the lighting pass, each pixel sends out multiple rays to probe for emissive surfaces. That ray marches using the distance field until it finds a surface, and the pixel adds the surface emission data to itself.

To bounce light, the previous frame is referenced and emissive surfaces from that frame are added to the current frame. This means every frame, light bounces to one additional surface.

## References

The primary references used when creating this demo were:

* [/u/toocanzs Reddit post](https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/91mwrh/infinity_2d_lights_with_shadows_gi/)

## Next steps

As mentioned, I do plan to continue working on this and creating documentation for it. Here's a rough list of things I want to improve on:

* Easier integration into existing Godot projects (think of the probe system for 3D GI in Godot).
* Arbitrary GI buffer size for integration into projects where calculating individual lighting data for 1920x1080 pixels would be prohibitively expensive.
* Blur filter to reduce noise.
* General optimisations (some passes and colour/emission buffers could probably be combined, branching in shaders reduced, etc).
