I'm really curious how this kind of horizon effect is achieved. In particular I'm curious if this can be done in 2D or if this is a 3D effect with sprite billboards.

I honestly can't tell, but if it is done in 2D I'd love to know how something like this is done if anyone has ideas.

It's very similar to the effect used in Animal Crossing but I know that's fully 3D.

Honestly even if that is a 2D effect it's probably easier to do it in 3D

Fair enough, I was just curious if I was missing anything about how it could be done with 2D.

Also, since it's free, you can probably download RenderDoc and see how it works internally
