Anime Barrage Finisher

A punch barrage that ends in a finisher for anime battlegrounds games: fist streaks hammer the target faster and faster, then an impact frame, a giant starburst, rings, sparks and boiling focus lines. Plays once, then clears.

Anime Barrage Finisher is an HD effect that loops seamlessly every 1.6 seconds, drawn on a 512 by 512 canvas. It is built from 17 particle emitters. Most layers blend additively, so it glows on dark backgrounds.

HOW IT'S MADE

Anime Barrage Finisher stacks 17 particle emitters, each with its own job. Techniques worth a look: sub-emitters set off by other particles, particles stretched along their motion, keyframed parameters and post filters (bloom and impact frames).

It loops seamlessly every 1.6 s, and 10 of its layers fire in bursts, so it pulses instead of flowing evenly. Start times are staggered from 0 s to 1.08 s, so the layers arrive one after another. To change its colour, select "Target Glow" in the studio and edit Colour A and Colour B. Size on the same layer sets how big its particles are. The colour swatches by the downloads recolour every layer at once.
