## ✨ Features Overview

### 🌧️ Screen-Space Reflections (SSR) & Dynamic Rain Puddles
– **Dynamic Wet Surfaces**: Roads, rooftops, and sidewalks accumulate reflective puddles when it rains.
– **Fresnel Real-Time Reflections**: Neon signs, glowing lanterns, and towering buildings cast specular reflections across wet ground and bodies of water.

### 💡 Multi-Stage Neon Bloom & Glow
– Emissive blocks (glowstone, lanterns, sea lanterns, redstone, torches, and froglights) radiate deep, volumetric neon glow.
– Multi-tap Kawase blur algorithms create smooth, bleeding light halos without clipping or white blowout.

### 🕶️ Anamorphic Lens Flare Streaks
– High-intensity light sources produce iconic cinematic horizontal light streaks across your field of view, giving that authentic sci-fi camera lens look.

### 🎨 ACES Filmic Tonemapping & Cyberpunk Color Grading
– **High Dynamic Range (HDR) Palette**: Deep obsidian-teal shadows, clean cyan midtones, and electric magenta & hot amber highlights.
– Cinematic contrast curves tuned specifically for nighttime city exploration and dark adventures.

### 🤖 Cyber-Optic Post-Processing
– **Chromatic Aberration**: Optical edge diffraction simulating cybernetic eye implants.
– **Filmic Sensor Grain**: Subtle ISO grain adding texture and cinematic realism.
– **Cybernetic Scanlines**: Optional subtle HUD scanline overlay.
– **Cinematic Vignette**: Soft optical corner falloff.
