Bomb Arrow

An arrow with a sparking bomb sticks in the dirt, blinks red and explodes: flash, fireball cooling to soot, shock ring, flying dirt and a smoke column.

Bomb Arrow is an HD effect that loops seamlessly every 2 seconds, drawn on a 512 by 288 canvas. It is built from 17 particle emitters and 1 laser beam. Some particles draw ribbon trails.

Free download with a transparent background, cropped to the effect, 60 frames at 30 fps. Use it in commercial games, no credit needed.
