Rainbow Pet Aura

A rainbow pet aura as a seamless loop: three rainbow ribbons orbit the pet, a dashed floor ring cycles through the colours and rainbow sparkles and motes rise. For shiny and rainbow pet variants; the pet is a stand-in.

Rainbow Pet Aura is an HD effect that loops seamlessly every 2 seconds, drawn on a 512 by 512 canvas. It is built from 4 particle emitters and 1 glowing stroke. Most layers blend additively, so it glows on dark backgrounds. Some particles draw ribbon trails.

HOW IT'S MADE

Rainbow Pet Aura is a compact effect made from 4 particle emitters. Techniques worth a look: glowing strokes traced along shapes, ribbon trails, sub-emitters set off by other particles, paths and post filters (bloom). A scene layer (ground or a prop) shows in the studio for context and stays out of every export.

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 "Rainbow Sparkles" 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.
