it is unlimited sort of how a fractal is unlimited

it's the same thing over and over which is why they can render so much at once

its not entirely fake but its not as impressive as they are making it sound

It sounds quite great for something that isn't movable/destroyable, like the ground or certain walls.

you could do animations but without any of the methods that artists are currently trained in

basically this isn't going to become mainstream because it takes all of the artists work and turns it into programmers work and we all know how terrible programmer art is

Oh, yes, because that fatfuck knows everything about how to make high-detail games, as evidenced by his ultra-realistic Minecraft.

We increased the geometry count -not 10 times- -OR 100 TIMES- -OR 1000 TIMES- We increased in the polygon count so far it's UNLIMITED DETAIL !!

LOL That video would be easier to take seriously if it didn't sound like an infomercial.

Yep. I'm guessing they are hoping for game companies to to start throwing development cash at them.

According to the website they got two million bucks from the Australian government, so if it's a scam it's a damn good one.
