I have no idea how I would even start with this but how would I make a realistic water effect
I saw that video and now im wondering how i should go abt making realistic water in my game
My game is topdown btw
I wonder if the Marching Squares extension can help. Otherwise, I’m clueless.

Good video, learning lots here.
Hi PMKNjuice
There’s a few things going on there,
sparkles in the water, you could maybe use Particles
wave movement, a very simple way, but not as good would be to use an offset with a tiled sprite.
If you have the offset in one direction all the time it would show the water flowing in. Or you could have the water flowing in both directions like my second example. The gif isn’t very good, it doesn’t show it well, but it’s something.
The tiled sprite WaterMove
Had another go at it later to get a wave effect on the sand. I made a new Sand sprite and tween scaled its x size at the same timing as the water offset.

I tried ever imgur link code to try to get the video to play on this page but none worked.
