Stealth Cloak: Stealth cloak effect for a 2D character sprite: it flickers and dissolves into smoke until only a faint shimmer is left, a see-through scanned outline that ripples like heat haze with a slight colour split, then blinks back into view.

Stealth Cloak

Stealth cloak effect for a 2D character sprite: it flickers and dissolves into smoke until only a faint shimmer is left, a see-through scanned outline that ripples like heat haze with a slight colour split, then blinks back into view. Loops. Swap in your own sprite. Sprite made with SpriteLab.

Stealth Cloak is an HD effect that loops seamlessly every 3 seconds, drawn on a 320 by 320 canvas. It is built from 4 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.

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.
