Project Flame
Fire, smoke, sparks and magic.
We wanted effects we could tweak instead of redraw. Project Flame is us building our own tools for fire, smoke, sparks and magic, mostly for fantasy stuff.
Every effect is a set of rules: how fast it rises, how it fades, what colour it burns. Change one number and the whole thing changes with it, so trying ten versions of a fireball takes minutes.
We paint the particles, bake them into textures and frame sheets, and drop them straight into our games.
