This is wayyy too saturated for my liking, but look at the sort of texture mesh that the planet is made of, that's the sort of style that I was hoping to achieve

[NolanChai]

o yea i agree with the kind of texture meshes - this looks good to me

[Sean1572]

Absolutely I love this mesh

That with a fake-pixelated style, some ceil-shading would be amazing

need underground images; lighting may not look as good without the sun

from the discord:

this one looks very doable lightingwise because there's just a directional light that casts shadows, and the point lights don't seem to cast shadows. the point lights probably have limited range but the cutoff is not noticeable. there's also a bloom effect. i like the bumpiness of the wall sides but not the flat surface

i like the poly look here, and the earthy tones. there's a quite subtle bloom effect. the spotlight casts shadows, but the point lights, which have limited range, do not

there also appears to be some ambient occlusion in the triangles, which is pretty curious. i wonder if this is done based on depth to the camera, or maybe the vertices all know whether they're in a crease. or maybe it just is part of being further from the point light (since Wrong Cave kind of has a similar effect)
