Ship Thruster

Pixel art ship thruster loop for a shmup: twin engines push flat fire discs that cool from white to deep red, with ember sparks and a surge twice a loop. Top-down spaceship exhaust sprite sheet.

Ship Thruster is a pixel art effect that loops seamlessly every 1 seconds, drawn on a 96 by 128 canvas at 3x pixels with the Endesga 32 palette. It is built from 10 particle emitters.

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.
