Question by TheSaviour · Jun 23, 2017 at 10:18 AM · infinite runnerinfinite terrain

How can I apply horizon curvature to infinite worlds?

I'm creating a sort of "endless runner" game that's gonna be set inside of a tunnel. So I'm gonna have to use a script to a generate new tunnels every few seconds to create the illusion of an infinitely long tunnel (already did this part). Here's what the tunnel looks like in my scene:

To create that "infinite feel", at the end of the tunnel, I put a black plane with no colliders to make it look like the tunnel is extending to nothing-ness. Although it's not a bad idea, I think I could do better. I was thinking of making the end of the tunnel look like it's curved downwards. It's the same concept used in Subway Surfers and Angry Gran Run:

As you can see in these screenshots, the "infinite feel" is created by curving the end of the path downwards, making it look more realistic. I want to implement the same effect with my tunnel. Any idea how one can achieve this?

I'm not sure how hard it is to do this on your own, but it's mainly a rendering effect, probably matrix calculations on the shaders used for the environment. Anyway, this might help you out if you're willing to pay some money:
