Anime Heavy Punch Impact

A heavy punch hit for anime battlegrounds and fighting games: a black, red and white impact frame, then a crimson and white starburst, a pressure ring pushed forward, impact lines, sparks and shards. Plays once, then clears.

Anime Heavy Punch Impact is an HD effect that loops seamlessly every 0.8 seconds, drawn on a 512 by 512 canvas. It is built from 13 particle emitters. Most layers blend additively, so it glows on dark backgrounds.

HOW IT'S MADE

Anime Heavy Punch Impact stacks 13 particle emitters, each with its own job. Techniques worth a look: particles stretched along their motion, keyframed parameters and post filters (bloom and impact frames).

It loops seamlessly every 0.8 s, and 13 of its layers fire in bursts, so it pulses instead of flowing evenly. Start times are staggered from 0.03 s to 0.07 s, so the layers arrive one after another. It carries little colour of its own, so it takes a tint well: select "Impact Streak" and set 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.
