## What it is
Ceto is an ocean and water rendering system for the Unity game engine, providing realistic wave simulation and water surface effects. It is written in C# and released under the MIT license.

## Use cases
- render realistic ocean water in a Unity game
- simulate ocean waves and water surface effects
- add water to a 3D scene in Unity
- create sea or open-water environments
- implement buoyancy over animated water surfaces

## When to choose
- you are building a Unity project that needs an ocean or large water body
- you want an open-source, MIT-licensed water system you can customize
- you need GPU-based wave simulation integrated with Unity

## When to avoid
- you are not using the Unity engine
- you need small-scale fluid effects like rivers or pools rather than open ocean
- you need actively maintained software with recent updates

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: graphics, simulation, game-engine
- domain: graphics, simulation
- platform: game-engine, cross-platform
- tags: unity, ocean, water-simulation, waves, shader, csharp, game-development
