In this GDC 2020 virtual talk, Level Ex's Andy Saia breaks down the process of creating what appear to be visually complex effects for games running on mobile devices.

It was a practical, in-depth technical look at what you need to implement effects like these in your own projects, and Saia backed it up with advice for solving a wide variety of VFX problems in mobile games and other platforms.

It was a great watch, and now you can watch it for free on the GDC YouTube channel!
