100% travel and partycoded
Built with sleep deprivation

Again nothing super fancy, as it was made in a rush
because I never give myself enough time to make a prod.
So this is still using the same hacked together C code
from 4 prods ago, and the shader source is not minified.

Tool credits

Big shoutout to iq, for their shader articles
and numerous example shaders.
Some comments are in the shader source,
linking to the place that have and/or explain the code.

File breakdown
--------------

- Crinkler/
	contains crinkler
- c-chord.nfo
	nfo file, basically a readme file that goes with the release
	it mentions "the 4k exe gfx compo" but that didn't exist, it
	was a combined graphics compo. oops
- c-chord.png
	rendered image of the final version
- c-chord-partyversion.png
	rendered image used to submit the entry in the partysystem
- f.c
	source of the program, copied and adapted from my previous prods
	all the way back to 'b.c' of my metro demo,
	see https://github.com/yugecin/metro/, so acknowledgements go out
	to auld's "chocolux" demo, iq's 4k framework, and sleep deprivation
- frag.glsl
	source of the shader ("final" version)
- frag.glsl.c
	frag.glsl but exported to be a c string, removing debug things,
	generated by https://github.com/yugecin/ShaderThing2
- frag-partyversion.glsl
	source of the shader (partyversion)
- makedebug
	shell "script" to make a build


How 2 build the executable
--------------------------

Assuming a non-cmd terminal (git-bash or similar),
run ". makedebug", though you may need to edit the file to change the LIBPATH.

requires gcc


How frag.glsl.c is built
------------------------

Run https://github.com/yugecin/ShaderThing2 and open frag.glsl and press the
"export" button (in the main window - the one with the shader).

(Note that the tool might complain about a missing frag.glsl.pos file,
ignore that)
