I don't remember who was the one complaining about using the word "alien" , but I just I couldn't resist, sorry!  

This fractal is a 2D one, mandelbox-based, and there is no raymarching. I used normals for light shading, and some plane distortion to make it look a bit spherish.
Yellow lights are orbit trap coloring. All is 3x antialiased, I thought it was going to be slow (it requires 9 samples per frame), but works pretty fast on my system, even fullscreen.

This came out very good for a 2-D fractal !!!
It was slightly slow on the machine I viewed it from, but that is only because I was not on my BIG machine at the time.

It lags a lot here, fullscreen, but the regular player which plays extremely smooth is very small compared to my screen. Is it possible to set the resolution? I think something in between would be optimal.

Thanks Nahee

Sorry but I can't use the embedding code where I can set the resolution, the embedding is made by the forums plugin configured by CK, I only have to put the http link.
I expected it was going to run slow on some machines, because of the antialiasing, but it runs pretty fast full screen for me, Win7/Chrome/AMD6870. What's your configuration? (OS,Browser,GPU)

My graphics card is outdated, so I think it's just normal that it doesn't keep up on fullscreen.
