Alright! I've decided to release a small particle effect I created with my particle system (called JipParticles) that I've been working on for a while now (probably a little over a month). Let me know what you think!

Very nice! I particularely like the smoke. If you were scaling the fire particles in as opposed to popping them in, you'd get it to look even nicer. If you put a large light blob over the emission, it would boost it even more.

Very pretty already, though! Good job!

Thanks!

You're right. I'll see what I can do!

By the way, it was your tagline that made me join the monkeys! ;)

First post updated.

The flames now start with scale x and y of 0.0 and grow to a max of 32 pixels proportionately. I also added a flame/smoke effect at the start of the fire to give it some umph... and to hide the appearing of the flames.

I hope it wasn't the threat I stuck on the end of it! :P

The download now includes an explosion particle demo. Criticism welcome!

Nice...

You should know though, that in Canada Jip means rip off "I got jipped"...

its the same as naming a restaurant Sam&Ella's Chicken

just letting you know...

the fire looks awesome. the explosion just doesn't convince me. maybe, something like what Taron did would work better:

Same in the US too. :)

Well, it's just a simple one. I can make a more elaborate one later maybe? One with flame arcs and a better/more realistic flash or something... I don't know, we'll see. :P
