DUSKHEARTH Fire Particle breakdown
Here's how we did the fire effect in DUSKHEARTH
First I did a very simple frame by frame animation in photoshop.
Then I put that on a emissive mat in unity, and played the animation in Unity Shuriken.
I added smoke by having solid round particles and childing that to the fire.
After adding some simple embers with the same solid round particles..
We have our final fire effect, and can now burn stuff down!
