A retro Jpeg compression aesthetic with runtime glitch generation
A stylized image effect for Unity URP based on real-time YCbCr color compression,
chroma shift, and scanline distortion. Designed for post-internet aesthetics like
Dreamcore, Weirdcore, PS1 era, or Retro Web nostalgia.
• YCbCr Conversion Glitcher— Core of the effect is built on RGB → YCbCr conversion,
mimicking how real JPEG compression treats luminance and chrominance channels.
• Chroma Color Distortions — The chroma channels (Cb, Cr) are downsampled and
quantized, creating soft bleeding, color shift, and compression artifacts in motion.
• Scanline Drift — Optional interlaced-style camera memory effect that introduces
ghosting, delayed readout, and analog vibes.
