I have changed my username from McDonaldsWIFI_ig to IslandAggravated,why? Well nothing bad happened but I wanted to stay safe from potential issues... Anyway don't worry it is the same dev, same updates!!
Recover what they took from us!
Miss those memories where things were more colorful, brigther and there were no problems?, well... I have studied hundreds and hundreds of nostalogic images and tried several patterns to create something that feels safe... something that can resemble a childhood memory!
This is an edit from Mellow Shader by The CMK. I challanged myself to edit it on an intel igpu and it had to run so I am sure that you can run the shader in any device. Special thanks to The CMK, you are the GOAT.
Update 1.13
Version 1.13 comes loaded with new post processing effects such as: Light Shafts underwater, Heat Shimmering in the distance( resembling a hot summer day), Water Refraction and the overall base color of the water improved!


(Water Refraction is disabled in this shot, but the distortion is also visible from the outside!)
And Also: Improved Clouds!


Childhood Summer mode :
How it looks like:
This mode tries to resemble summer nostalogic memories. It hits its peak at sunrise and sunset. The combination of saturated and vibrant colors, bloom uneven grain and a tiny bit of color chanel splitting can bring what I call home.
VHS mode :
How it looks like:

This brings the "Mom said it is my turn on the xbox" memory. It oposed to Childhood summer in terms of colors as it is desaturaated and with less contrast. You can see most of the classic artifacts that VHS tapes caused. If you enjoy how VHS cameras worked this mode is the best for you
Quality Presets:
- It takes a lot of your FPS so BE CAREFUL - it is the most cut down version of all 4, I don't recomend playing with this preset unless you want very simple effects and maximize your FPS; - It takes a lot of your FPS so BE CAREFUL - has more effects than fast but not all of the effects that the shader packs. It is a perfect balance between quality and performance; - It takes a lot of your FPS so BE CAREFUL - this preset has all of the effects enabled at a reasonable quality,not as fast as fancy) - It takes a lot of your FPS so BE CAREFUL - it doesn't add more effects than fabulous. It only sets the quality to the max ensuring a crisp and detailed image.It takes a lot of your FPS so BE CAREFUL
