Mercury Particle Sandbox - Create Particle Effects, Animations, Banners, Prototypes and more!

Hey Sandboxers! :wink:

So far I only showed you rendered images and animations as well as some screenshots of the Mercury Particle Sandbox.

Today I have a little video for you which shows you some in-app-action!

Despite YouTube encoding beeing crazy with particle effects, here it is:

I recommend watching a high quality version of this video by downloading it here:

Enjoy! :star2:


Sandboxing with particles and physics is a great way to test particle effects under certain conditions. It’s also great to simulate real forces on Projectiles :comet: Fireballs :fire: or Water Splashes :ocean: for example.

In future versions of the sandbox it will be possible to let particles flow on splines and trigger various special effects and events on their way.

It will be like a script-system but without the need of actual coding / programming. Everything will work easily and directly within the sandbox environment.


What I’m currently working on?

Currently i’m working on modernizing some parts of the GUI so that I can show the application to the public. This means exchanging old prototype form controls with new ImGui widgets. Yes, I’m using the .Net version of it :slight_smile:

Here is a comparison of the Sprite Sheet Editor:

Stay tuned for the next update!

The APNG and GIF editor will be next…

Have a sparkling day!
