An implementation of Surface-Stable Fractal Dithering, a novel dithering technique for 3D surfaces where dither dots stick to surfaces while maintaining constant screen-space size. It ships as Unity shaders and textures with an example project demonstrating grayscale, RGB, and CMYK halftone modes.

Use cases

• apply 1-bit dithering effects to 3D scenes
• create halftone CMYK rendering in Unity
• make dither patterns that stick to moving 3D surfaces
• achieve retro low-resolution looks in modern 3D games
• experiment with novel real-time shader techniques
• render stylized non-photorealistic 3D graphics

When to choose

• you use Unity's Built-in Render Pipeline and want surface-stable dithering
• you need stylized retro or halftone visuals in a 3D project
• you want a reference implementation of fractal dithering research

When to avoid

• you need dithering for 2D images or post-processing only
• you use URP/HDRP without porting the shaders
• your project is not built with Unity
