#82I love how this written. I've wanted to document how a personal project works, and this style's exactly what I was looking for.
Re: Nightdrive
#83This reminds me of this video: https://youtu.be/WrxZ4AZPdOQ He does incredible work with shaders and explains them in very clear detail.
I watched this video a couple of years ago and was blown away by what can be done with shaders.

#85> ’Maybe it's a "demo"?’ There’s a long-standing tradition of people creating realtime graphics software on personal computers that doesn’t offer any interactivity. They are indeed called demos and the community is called the demoscene. It goes back to the late 1980s and had a golden era in the mid-90s on Amiga and PC.

Would love to see some small intros. Any links/sources you may suggest?

#86As German, the thing that annoys me after 5 seconds is that the driver is overtaken on the right side and does so himself ... Hate it
The driver drives on the left, so over taking on the right is the proper way to do it.

#88This reminds me of the movie Drive (2011), in particular the first song on the soundtrack, Kavinsky - Nightcall https://youtu.be/MV_3Dpw-BRY
Very nice! I instantly recognized the tune but from a completely different event, namely
That's the cover by band London Grammar and TIL about the original one. Didn't know about the movie which now is on my todo list, thanks.

#89Earlier quoted context omitted.
Exactly. Whenever drawing a pair of red circles for tailights, draw ~10 overlapping black circles between them. Bam. Done. I don't think this requires naive optimism, just 5 minutes of additional effort. Maybe less.
Only five minutes! - Here's the source, show us. https://github.com/jes/nightdrive
I'm not the previous poster but thought this would be a fun challenge. No way it was 5 min though; took me at least 20 min to understand what to change.
Anyways, run this in your browser inspector to hot-patch the live demo so that each car has an opaque black circle as its body/chassis:

#90I'm amused that we share initials and a passion for this kind of project! Mine's https://rezmason.github.io/drivey . One key difference: this guy built his demo from scratch, whereas mine's a port of someone else's work. It's great to see another implementation, with its own techniques and features.
