A Spiritual Successor: Exocortex Fury

  • After Frantic, I founded Exocortex and helped build Exocortex Fury, a GPU-driven spiritual successor to Krakatoa.
  • Fury focused on real-time rendering of millions of particles with depth of field, motion blur, self-shadowing, and stereo rendering.
  • It integrated with Softimage and Maya and found strong adoption in parts of the VFX industry.
  • The core idea lived on: specialized particle rendering could unlock visuals that general-purpose renderers struggled to deliver.
