Dynamic Materials Lab

Dynamic Materials Lab is a first-person technical demo built to make several advanced graphics ideas visible in one guided space. The player moves through a small environment that presents procedural terrain, portal-style scene views, and dynamic material effects as interactive demonstrations instead of disconnected tests.

The project is less about traditional gameplay and more about showing how technical art systems can become practical in-engine tools. It focuses on terrain modification, portal linking, and material behavior in context, with a path that helps the viewer understand what each system is doing.
