Buy Pad Glow

A tycoon purchase pad on the floor as a seamless loop: a neon green diamond with marching dashes and a breathing fill, pulses rippling out, light rising off it and a banknote icon bobbing above.

Buy Pad Glow is an HD effect that loops seamlessly every 2 seconds, drawn on a 512 by 512 canvas. It is built from 2 particle emitters and 3 glowing strokes. Most layers blend additively, so it glows on dark backgrounds.

HOW IT'S MADE

Buy Pad Glow is drawn with 3 glowing strokes, lines with a hot core and a soft glow traced along their shapes, plus 2 particle emitters. Techniques worth a look: sprite modules, particles stretched along their motion, keyframed parameters and post filters (bloom).

Every layer emits continuously and the 2 s loop closes seamlessly, so it can run for as long as you need. To recolour the line, select "Pad Rim" and change Core and Glow; Start and End set how much of it is drawn. The colour swatches by the downloads recolour every layer at once.

Import the PNG sheet as a Sprite with Mode set to Multiple and slice it, or open the effect in the studio for a ready-made grid.
Godot 4, GameMaker, Aseprite
Open it in the studio and pick your engine in Export: with a plan, it writes the files that engine imports.
Web and chat
The GIF plays anywhere; the APNG keeps soft edges on any background.
