In this video we will show you step by step how we converted the gravitational lens formula which is predicted by Albert Enistein into shader graph to create a 2D Black Hole in Unity engine 2019.3


We built our shader based on the following article: unionassets.com/blog/the-effect-of-the-gravitational-lens-195
