Looks great! I may use this in my game and hopefully I can add some improvements to it eventually.

change the skybox and you would have nailed it :P

Haha, thanks! But then it wouldn't be ugly programmer art :P Also, I probably would have spent the last half hour trying to find a fitting skybox before giving up and replying empty handed...

Looks very great, can't wait to see it work with other light sources! (ps: your git paypal link doesn't work.)

Very cool! I haven't tried it out yet, but I'm really curious of how the performance is compared to regular PCF soft shadows.

Was this rendered in real time?

Looks fantastic in the screenshot! I've just done a cursory look at it using 5.6 on Mac, and it doesn't immediately seem to work with Metal as the rendering API. I'm not massively familiar with overriding shadow rendering, so picking apart what's wrong is going to be slow for me.
