Mostly looks like reflection, maybe a custom shader with a map?

Thanks for your reply. The effect is probably to get the scene and then put the inverse texture on the water, the question is how to get the current scene.

Blender or similar? Reflection is a view dependent effect, some frensel and things? There is water shaders around
