Hi, I'm currently working on a 2D game which takes place mostly on water. The camera is top down and can be zoomed in and out quite a lot. Well, it can't be zoomed in more then what you would see from an airplane flying above water as close as it can. I'd like to make a nice water effect which would work well when zoomed both in and out, but I couldn't find anything on the net - almost every water effect is in 3D or it's a side-scroller. It doesn't have to one effect; I could somehow transition from one effect to another while zooming in. I got some ideas, but as I have no expiriences with these effects I think it wouldn't look very good. So I would appreaciate some examples of how I could do it (or similar games - I couldn't think of any topdown game with a water effect!). Thanks in advance.
