 Mad Universe Holidays - 2D Multiplayer Shooter prototype

Qubotron is a voxel-based engine written completely from scratch in C#, using Unity3D architecture.
Everything from vertex generation and manipulation, layered materials and lighting are written and handled independently from Unity3D, which allowed me to just take advantage of its high performance rendering canvas, and the plethora of utilities and assets available to this engine.

The engine features an intuitive state machine handled through an efficient multi-threaded queue system.
This allows to perform for instance a whole voxel lighting generation step in under 3ms, 16x16x128 (32768) chunks of Simplex Noise generated blocks (with basic biomes support) in few milliseconds, advanced water and ocean simulation in a very short time as well.
The engine lets players make their own complex voxel structures and export them in a custom format file, as well as import and rescale/rotate them in the map.
