Pixel Particle Generator

Pixel Particle Generator is a professional Windows desktop tool for creating animated pixel-art particle effects and exporting them as production-ready sprite sheets for games.

It is designed for indie developers, pixel artists, 2D game creators, and anyone who needs fast, clean, transparent pixel FX without drawing every frame from scratch.

Create Game-Ready Pixel Effects

Quickly generate animated effects such as fire, smoke, sparks, magic, blood, snow, dust, explosions, electricity, water splashes, poison clouds, rain, embers, debris, portals, healing effects, muzzle flashes, bubbles, slime, and more.

Every effect is generated procedurally, so you can adjust settings, randomize variations, change colors, preview the animation, and export the final result directly into your game engine.

Built For Pixel Art

Pixel Particle Generator keeps your effects sharp and clean. The preview and export system uses pixel-perfect rendering with nearest-neighbor scaling, hard pixel edges, transparent backgrounds, and exact frame sizes.

This makes the exported sprite sheets easy to use in Unity, Godot, GameMaker, RPG Maker, custom engines, and other 2D workflows.

Manual Frame Editing

Generated effects can be edited frame by frame. Select a frame in the timeline, enable Edit Frame mode, and paint directly on the preview.
