About this asset
Essential 2D Particle FX Starter Pack for Platformer Games is a lightweight and production-ready collection of core 2D particle effects, taken directly from our full Platformer Kit, a complete toolset to create polished platformer or metroidvania games in Unity.
This pack includes 9 essential visual effects, designed for common platformer actions like jumping, dashing, landing, teleporting, dying, and more. Each effect comes in 5 preconfigured color variants: blue, red, green, yellow, and purple. All assets are organized, clean, and ready to use as drag-and-drop prefabs.
Whether you're looking to quickly add juice to your gameplay or preview what's included in our larger systems, this pack is optimized for fast workflows and visual consistency.
What’s Included :
Note that other assets that you can see on gameplay pictures are not included except particle effects and UI.
45 prefabs total (9 effects × 5 color variants).
- Dust : feedback for player movement and turning
- Dash : quick burst trail for dash mechanics
- Death : visual cue for player destruction
- Explosion 1 : jump impact or energy burst
- Explosion 2 : alternative explosive jump or attack
- Land : landing feedback effect
- Portal : teleport animation or level entrance
- Finish Portal : end-of-level or checkpoint portal or even a projectile
- Halo : glowing loop for buttons, power-ups, or magical objects
Bonus
Also includes a small sample of UI elements from our complete Platformer Bundle : buttons, coin counters, power-up icons, and more (sizes from 500×500 up to 3000×3000).
Looking for more ?
These effects are taken straight from our complete Platformer Bundle, which includes tilemaps, player movement systems, enemies, coin collection, skin selection, save/load features, and everything else you need to start building a complete 2D platformer or metroidvania game in Unity.
