An anti-tiling/Voronoi shader for Unity

Here's a Unity shader implementation of the Voronoi/anti-tiling stuff. This is based on the Legacy Bumped Diffuse shader, because I use it a ton, but you could just as easily ap...

Making a tiling texture look less ugly

There's a lot of ways of doing this, but I'm going to focus on Voronoi diagrams. Don't know the term? Well, you've probably seen one. Looks like this:

Time to pick ANOTHER birb!

Ok, the winner of last poll was: Lilac Breasted Roller! That'll be in-progress once Alex recovers from EGX. SkateBIRD was in the Leftfield collection, and Alex ducked in to get a sense of how excited people were (in short: extremely), and I believ...

Spawn Pooling bonus code

These are just some of the many, many scripts I've built that I use a lot in spawning and despawning stuff. These should all be drop-in functional with PoolManager, unless they've changed their message names on the latest version or something.

Spawn Pooling (and cute art)

This is a combo topic! There's code at the top, and cute art at the bottom. Scroll as you feel is appropriate, heh.

This topic comes up because I'm putting...

Pick A Birb #5: Son Of Birb

And here's the last of the triple poll. CHOOSE WELL! Google if you don't recognize the name, but they all cute.

Pick A Birb #3: Birb Begins

By my count, I owe y'all THREE polls. Stuff got crazy in the E3/Kickstarter leadup, but here we are, and it's going great, thanks largely to you folks. So the least I can do is have you VOTE SOME BIRBS.

I'm going to break all the suggest...
