Every now and then we all make mistakes. Sometimes those mistakes turnout to be FREAKING AWESOME!!!

Here's my example...
I was doing a little experiment in flash with filters. I got the blur filter working. This is what it looked like.
Next I brought in a colour matrix filter to try to make it fade to green. This is what happened. (Click the picture for link the .swf)
SERIOUS EPILEPSY WARNING

My best guess is that it does fade to green but doesn't break/stop at green.

Man, that is awesome!  My brother and I had a good laugh at this bizarre "turn of events", but unfortunately neither of us knows how that happened WTF

If you could vsync that it'd be pretty hypnotic (as opposed to epileptic...)

I managed to do this today. Was sampling the wrong textures and projecting shadows with color values as a scalar.

Created this cool 3d projection effect that's super trippy.

I stared at my screen until all that was left was the orange dot in the center. Mission accomplished.

Sure is interesting o_O

When I break something... I break it good. I've never created anything awesome from my mistakes, just horrendous train wrecks.

You should make a game that uses that sort of lighting purposefully.  Could you keep the weird shadows b&w but color the foreground?

I'd love to be able to interact with that circle in the middle--move it around Tongue It sort of looks like this is what you were able to do in the pre-buggy build?

Game Maker has this thing with not drawing the background that creates a really trippy effect when combined with surfaces. I managed to make the background in this game based on that effect.
