Sprite Shatter FX — Description
Sprite Shatter FX is a powerful and easy-to-use Unity tool that lets you transform any sprite into a dynamic shattering effect using the built-in Particle System.
It automatically breaks your sprite into multiple pieces (shards) and applies physics, motion, rotation, and visual effects — making it perfect for destruction, impact, and stylized VFX scenarios.
✨ Key Features
- One-Click Shatter & Bake — instantly generate and place the effect in your scene

- Grid-Based Shattering — control shard count with rows and columns
- Advanced Explosion Controls — fine-tune force, gravity, decay, and impulse
- Rotation & Lifetime Systems — realistic shard movement and behavior
