One-Touch Effects (Shader Opportunities collection)
Aiming Sight
An effect in the form of a crosshair. By default, it stays active and pulses while the player holds it, until they release it. Suitable for first-person shooters or top-down shooters for firing mechanics. It offers flexible customization, from the position of the aiming cross to the number of rings and more.
Cloud
An effect in the form of a procedurally generated, realistic colored cloud that smoothly dissipates. Suitable for subtle highlighting when picking up items or collecting loot in magical or underwater locations. Colors, intensity, and other visual details are customizable. Set the particle with different x/y proportions to achieve a creeping smoke effect or an upward-moving effect similar to fire.
Comic Burst
An effect in the form of a comic-style burst, hit, or “boom.” It demonstrates the ability to generate randomly shaped figures for touch effects in a cartoony style. Change the sharpness of the angles, their number, line thickness, colors, and so on.
Comic Impact Layers
A comic-style flash effect made up of multiple layers that can be toggled, adjusted in width, stroke thickness, color, and more. Use it to illustrate hits, combat mechanics, case openings, ability activations.
Comic Puff
An effect in the form of comic-style puffy clouds illustrating a “puff.” The cloud generation, radius, and colors are customizable. Use this basic effect for item touches, opening chests, or selecting building constructions.
Dotted Ring
An effect made of dots arranged radially. Change their color, quantity, fade- and scale-out animation. This is a basic effect that’s usually present in all similar touch-effect collections.
Explosion
A realistic explosion effect with flying sparks. The procedurally generated cloud shape can be customized, including color, edge complexity, duration and size of flashes, number of sparks, and more.
Fingerprint
An effect in the form of a fingerprint, made up of several layers of curved lines. You can adjust their curvature, color, and quantity. Use this effect in detective games to visualize the player’s touch. The elongated shape is achieved by adjusting the x/y proportions of the particle itself.
Fireflies
An effect of animated fireflies that rotate along a trajectory around the touch. You can adjust their number, color, radius, and speed. Use this effect to create a magical response when casting spells, interacting with crystals, or similar actions.
Frost Cute
An effect simulating cracks (rays) from a frosty touch, a glow, and flying snowflakes (crystals). Use this effect in games with a winter or magical theme, or when the player applies freezing abilities.
Ground Debris
An effect of flying dust, soil particles and chunks. Adjust them, including disabling certain layers, changing color, gravity, spread angle (e.g., dispersing only upward or in a full 360°). Simulate touches on the ground, for example in combat, or for farming, digging, and similar mechanics.
Healing Aura
An effect made of several glowing rings and particles, reminiscent of the Northern Lights. Remove or reduce the rings and change their color. Use this effect for healing magical abilities, or when leveling up, using potions, and similar actions.
Healing Spark
An effect made using the same shader as Healing Aura, showcasing how it can be modified. Use it for subtle touch highlights in games with a magical vibe.
Healing Pluses
An effect consisting of rising glowing plus signs. You can edit the color, quantity, speed, and size. This effect is intended for interactions related to healing, such as picking up a medkit, using a medkit, and similar actions.
Isometric Marker
An effect of glowing, expanding rings. The elongated shape is achieved by the particle’s x/y proportions. It can be used as a marker in isometric games to indicate a spot the player should go to. Adjust the number of rings, core brightness, and speed. In a looping mode (Particle Preview Player), it can highlight a target area on the map screen.
