  Any news on this shader ?? Can you share with us ?? We are really interested, because we are looking for a shadow solution to use it in our beat em’up game. Thanks in advance, you have a great blog.

    the shader went broken in some version..have not yet tried to fix it after that.
    i’ll post it once i find it 🙂

    *but i think it was just a 2 pass shader, 2nd pass drew the sprite as black with offset..
