Comic-book KABOOM: a pop-in lettering flipbook over a flat cartoon blast, inked white puffs, stars and action lines.

Comic Kaboom is an HD effect that loops seamlessly every 1.4 seconds, drawn on a 320 by 320 canvas. It is built from 7 particle emitters.

Free download with a transparent background, cropped to the effect, 42 frames at 30 fps. Use it in commercial games, no credit needed (the CodeManu sprites in it ask for credit).

USING IT IN YOUR GAME

Phaser, PixiJS
Take the PNG sheet: it comes with a TexturePacker JSON atlas that both load directly.
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: it writes the files that engine imports.
Web and chat
The GIF plays anywhere; the APNG keeps soft edges on any background.
