Sprinkles is a GPU-accelerated particle system for the Bevy game engine with a built-in dedicated visual editor.

⛹️ Check out all the examples here!

Add bevy_sprinkles to your project:

[dependencies]
bevy_sprinkles = "0.2"

Add the plugin to your Bevy app:

use bevy::prelude::*;
use bevy_sprinkles::prelude::*;

fn main() {
    App::new()
        .add_plugins((DefaultPlugins, SprinklesPlugin))
        .run();
}

Spawn a particle system from a RON asset file:

fn setup(mut commands: Commands, asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) {
    commands.spawn(ParticleSystem3D {
        handle: asset_server.load("my_effect.ron"),
    });
}

Sprinkles comes with a visual editor for designing particle systems. To run it from the repository:

cargo editor

Or install the editor globally:

cargo install bevy_sprinkles_editor

Then run it from anywhere with the sprinkles command.

Documentation is available at docs.rs.

• GPU particle simulation & sorting
• Fully fledged built-in visual editor
• 3D support (2D is planned)
• PBR material support (custom shaders is planned)
• Automatic GPU instancing across emitters & systems
• Particle collision
• Curl noise turbulence
• Billboard & velocity-aligned transform modes
• Sub-emitters

Godot's particle system is a huge source of inspiration for Sprinkles, and we aim to reach feature parity at some point. Thank you for all it's contributors.

Brackeys' video on making VFX with Godot was what inspired me to work on a similar system for Bevy and adapt some of those VFXs to it.
