Level Up Text Pop: LEVEL UP!

Level Up Text Pop

LEVEL UP! in a chunky gold font: the letters pop in one by one, wave while shown and shrink away, over light rays, glitter and confetti. Real text, so change the words and font in one field.

Level Up Text Pop is an HD effect that loops seamlessly every 2.4 seconds, drawn on a 512 by 320 canvas. It is built from 3 particle emitters and 1 text layer. Most layers blend additively, so it glows on dark backgrounds.

HOW IT'S MADE

Level Up Text Pop is a compact effect made from 3 particle emitters. Techniques worth a look: styled text animated letter by letter and post filters (bloom).

It loops seamlessly every 2.4 s, and 2 of its layers fire in bursts, so it pulses instead of flowing evenly. Start times are staggered from 0 s to 0.35 s, so the layers arrive one after another. To change its colour, select "Rays" 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. Raysparticles / additiveOne burst of 14 streaks at 0.15 s. They swell and then shrink away. Colours range between orange and gold.
  2. Level uptextThe words "LEVEL UP!" in Lilita One. Its letters pop in one after another. They keep moving while they are shown. At the end they fade away.
  3. Glitterparticles / additiveA steady stream of stars on the letters of the text. They swell and then shrink away. Colours range between white and pale gold.
  4. ConfettiparticlesOne burst of 40 squares across a box at 0.35 s. They fall under gravity, spin and slow down with drag. Colours range between pink and cyan.

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.
