Blocky Character Break Apart

A blocky avatar falling to pieces when it dies in a Roblox obby: the body blocks flash white, burst apart, bounce and tumble on the floor and then dissolve away, with a puff, a ring and little cubes.

Blocky Character Break Apart is an HD effect that loops seamlessly every 1.6 seconds, drawn on a 512 by 512 canvas. It is built from 5 particle emitters. Most layers blend additively, so it glows on dark backgrounds.

Free download with a transparent background, cropped to the effect, 48 frames at 30 fps. Use it in commercial games, no credit needed.

Roblox: the download is a flipbook for a ParticleEmitter. Set FlipbookLayout to Grid8x8, FlipbookMode to OneShot and Lifetime to 1.6, then emit one particle per cycle. Roblox setup.
