Radiance

Lamps in a dark room, traced to whatever they light

A dark room with a few small lamps in it, and everything they light. Shadows are hard beside a small lamp and soft beside a near one, and turning bars sweep shadow blades across the floor. The pointer is the brightest lamp in the room, so moving it moves every shadow.

Rendering cost: heavy. A raymarch or escape-time loop per pixel: cap the pixel ratio, or keep it to a card rather than a fullscreen background. How to tune it
