Lava pool

Pixel-art lava pool: banded molten surface with drifting flow streaks and crust, domes that heat up and pop into arcing blobs, smoke puffs and embers.

Lava pool is a pixel art effect that loops seamlessly every 3 seconds, drawn on a 192 by 192 canvas at 3x pixels with the Endesga 32 palette. It is built from 11 particle emitters.

Free download with a transparent background, cropped to the effect, 90 frames at 30 fps. Use it in commercial games, no credit needed.

OPEN IN THE STUDIO

Change the colours, timing or size, or export for Unity, Godot 4, GameMaker, Phaser, PixiJS and Aseprite.

USING IT IN YOUR GAME

Phaser, PixiJS
Take the PNG sheet: it comes with a TexturePacker JSON atlas that both load directly.
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: it writes the files that engine imports.
Web and chat
The GIF plays anywhere; the APNG keeps soft edges on any background.
