Shader Showdown - Live Coding Competition

Friday, 2019-04-19 CEST

Since its inception in 2013 at WeCan, the Shader Showdown has gone from strength to strength. After the first full season of qualification tournaments at demoparties around Europe we're now heading to Saarbrucken for the 2019 season final! It's the ultimate fight of knowledge, persistence and crowd-pleasing skills: Two coders face off writing a shader from scratch in 25 minutes, live on stage, with a DJ supporting them with pumping beats. The crowd gets to watch both shaders evolve in parallel on the big screen, enjoying the action and cheering on the participants. The objective is simple: At the end of the 25 minutes, whoever gets more cheers from the spectators wins. All battles will be moderated live by hosts who can't code and coders who can't host. At this Revision, we're going to run two tournaments in parallel: The first qualification battle for the 2020 Showdown Just like last year, the Shader Showdown will be touring demoparties across Europe, and each time four coders will have a chance to qualify for the final battle in 2020! We're kicking off the season at Revision with a bracket of four contestants, one of whom will earn the golden ticket to the 2020 finale. The shader champion of 2019 Likewise, last year's tournament will come to its spectacular conclusion at Revision! Champions from last year's qualification battles at demoparties all over Europe come head to head in the final elimination bracket to determine the Ultimate Shader Overlord of 2019! The Rules at a glance Every battle lasts 25 minutes and you have to write all code from scratch. All code has to be written in (and only in) BONZOMATIC. A set of textures will be provided for each round. You can pick your weapon of choice: GLSL or HLSL (DX9 or DX11).
