I have joined as an [effects artist](http://kotaku.com/there-are-special-effects-artists-in-video-games-too-y-1488284201), so basically I get to make all the [particle effects](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_system). This was a super exciting opportunity for me because I get all the particle effects to myself. Currently though, I do have Mike Densmore drawing up the textures since we had a tight deadline and I had to familiarize myself with Unity's [Shuriken](http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/class-ParticleSystem.html) system. I created a total of 10 particle effects in about 2 weeks. Below is a video of the build we submitted to the [IGF](http://www.igf.com/) competition: If you noticed the "flub" that comes off when you get hit, the "flub" when you die, the explosion, spawning, and charging rings, that's the stuff I did. Not everything I created made it into this build. There's five more effects I created that either weren't shown in the video or didn't make it in. I do think I found something I would love to do in the industry. Particle effects are so fun and there's so much you can do with them. There's a whole list of effects I need to finish for the Flub Fighter game and I can't wait to do them.   - [** ](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https://blog.uat.edu/blogs/flub-fighter&title=Flub%20Fighter&picture=http://learn.uat.edu/hubfs/Flub%20Fighter%20a%20indie%20video%20game%20by%20UAT%20Game%20Studios.jpg&description=Flub%20Fighter) - [** ](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?source=https://blog.uat.edu/blogs/flub-fighter&text=Flub%20Fighter) - [** ](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://blog.uat.edu/blogs/flub-fighter&title=Flub%20Fighter&summary=Flub%20Fighter) - [** ](mailto:?subject=Flub%20Fighter&body=Flub%20Fighter%20https://blog.uat.edu/blogs/flub-fighter) ### Don't forget to share this post! - [** ](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https://blog.uat.edu/blogs/flub-fighter&title=Flub%20Fighter&picture=http://learn.uat.edu/hubfs/Flub%20Fighter%20a%20indie%20video%20game%20by%20UAT%20Game%20Studios.jpg&description=Flub%20Fighter) - [** ](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?source=https://blog.uat.edu/blogs/flub-fighter&text=Flub%20Fighter) - [** ](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://blog.uat.edu/blogs/flub-fighter&title=Flub%20Fighter&summary=Flub%20Fighter) - [** ](mailto:?subject=Flub%20Fighter&body=Flub%20Fighter%20https://blog.uat.edu/blogs/flub-fighter) ### Comment ## Related Articles [Blogs](https://blog.uat.edu/tag/blogs) [video game industry](https://blog.uat.edu/tag/video-game-industry) ### [Gaming Passion Series: Part 3 [Aesthetics]](https://blog.uat.edu/blogs/gaming-passion-series-part-3-aesthetics) Don’t you just love it when something looks pretty?
