Cash Income Popup

A green +$250 pops in letter by letter over a green glow while banknotes and sparkles burst behind it, then it drifts up and floats away. Plays once for tycoon income and sales; edit the text for any amount.

Cash Income Popup is an HD effect that loops seamlessly every 1.4 seconds, drawn on a 384 by 384 canvas. It is built from 3 particle emitters, 1 glowing stroke and 1 text layer. Most layers blend additively, so it glows on dark backgrounds.

HOW IT'S MADE

Cash Income Popup is a compact effect made from 3 particle emitters. Techniques worth a look: glowing strokes traced along shapes, styled text animated letter by letter, keyframed parameters and post filters (bloom).

It loops seamlessly every 1.4 s, and 3 of its layers fire in bursts, so it pulses instead of flowing evenly. Start times are staggered from 0 s to 0.08 s, so the layers arrive one after another. To change its colour, select "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.

Layers, in draw order

  1. Glowparticles / additiveA single particle at 0.04 s. It grows as it ages. Colour: green.
  2. Ringstroke / additiveA glowing line traced along a circle.
  3. BanknotesparticlesOne burst of 6 rings across a box at 0.05 s. They fall under gravity, grow as they age, spin and slow down with drag. Colour: white.
  4. AmounttextThe words "+$250" in Luckiest Guy. Its letters pop in one after another. At the end they fade away.
  5. Sparklesparticles / additiveOne burst of 12 stars across a box at 0.08 s. They swell and then shrink away and slow down with drag. Colours range between white and pale green.

USING IT IN YOUR GAME

Phaser, PixiJS
The PNG sheet is a plain grid of frames that both can slice. A TexturePacker JSON atlas comes with a plan, from the studio.
Unity
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.
