Looks very psychedelic. It's interesting how simulating a variable speed of light creates the same visual effect as that produced by ingesting psychedelic mushrooms or LSD. Not just the color spectrum, but also the distance/space distortions one reports while tripping. I guess those mushrooms in the game are not a coincidence. Wonder what the connection is there then.

Our initial plans involved mushrooms that grew due to the time dilation. They were nice because they could grow straight up so we had easy time calculating past positions. We only later realized the connection that you could make.
