Hi Product Hunt!
I’m back with a major update - DASCA v1.1.1.
DASCA is a desktop app for 2D, 3D, and video creation. It lets you build complex looks using shader-based effect chains with real-time previews.
The biggest addition in v1.1.1 is Playground. A full real-time GLSL development environment built directly into DASCA.
With Playground you can:
Write and edit shaders live
Control uniforms instantly with sliders
Animate everything using a powerful keyframe timeline with advanced curve support
It basically turns DASCA into both a production tool and a shader playground at the same time.
I’ve also added many new effects based on creator feedback and continue to ship updates frequently.
I’ll be here all day answering questions.
If you’re into shaders, motion design, or visual experimentation. I’d love to hear your thoughts.
