Amazing particle effects for games, applications and web pages for studios, companies or developers
About TimelineFX
Export the particle effects as static animations onto sprite sheets, animation strips or image sequences in PNG format, or if you develop for the iPhone or iPad, you can export using the PVRTC format (Mac only). If you program games using the powerful Blitzmax programming language, you can also use the effects directly using the TimelineFX Module. Create an endless amount of different and varied particle effects including explosions, smoke, fire, water, steam, bubbles, and much more! Animations can be easily configured to loop seamlessly with just one click of the mouse, and with another click, you can even make animations tile seamlessly too for use as animated textures. Including smoke, fire, explosions, water, flares, clouds and much more! Plus, we also have plenty of free effects for you to download. Particle emitters have 24 attributes to control your effects with precision using graphs to draw their behaviour overtime.

SlotVFX
SlotVFX is a desktop app for Mac and Windows that helps game studios, Spine animators and web game developers make high-quality effects and animations fast. Studios get studio-quality VFX without a long production cycle or a big team. Spine animators juice up their animations with particles, glows and shaders on bones and slots, and can retarget and merge skeletons. Web game developers export optimized, complex effects to PixiJS, Phaser, Cocos Creator or WebGL2 with a royalty-free runtime. Work by hand, or ask your AI assistant (Claude or ChatGPT) to build and tune effects for you. The editor is free; paid plans add game exports, cloud sync, share links and team features.
