Invincible Buff

An invincible buff: the character glows gold from within as a rim of light traces round them with racing highlights, a shine sweeps up the body and star glints flash. Loops seamlessly.

Invincible Buff is an HD effect that loops seamlessly every 2 seconds, drawn on a 320 by 320 canvas. It is built from 7 particle emitters and 3 glowing strokes. Most layers blend additively, so it glows on dark backgrounds.

HOW IT'S MADE

Invincible Buff stacks 7 particle emitters, each with its own job. Techniques worth a look: glowing strokes traced along shapes, keyframed parameters and post filters (bloom and vignette).

Every layer emits continuously and the 2 s loop closes seamlessly, so it can run for as long as you need. To change its colour, select "Gold Halo" 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.

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.
Blend mode
This effect is made of light. For the same glow in your game, draw the sprite with additive blending, or export it on black from the studio for additive shaders.
