WHOA PARTICLES Use the number keys (1-3) to demonstrate different particle explosions. Check the code to see how it works!
Particle template sprite; feel free to use it to enhance your projects a bit! Just copy the sprite and change the particle's costume to whatever you'd like :) The explosions used: #1 fires particles in many directions with a uniform initial force, which creates a circle-like burst. #2 fires particles with a "negative" force, which tells the script to shoot off particles with a varying force for each particle. This creates a very random, firework-like burst. Also notice that the explosion starts higher up; the block is set to spawn a burst at (0,120). #3 uses two blocks to fire twin bursts upward using negative gravity! Perhaps in a remix, you could change the particles to little flames and use a smaller number of particles being fired constantly (maybe 3 to 5) as torch sparks? :) If you use this in any projects, feel free to post links to them in the comments here. I'd love to see what you make! -Jim
