Description
Looked at a fire in slow motion, and applied what I saw to a symbolized fire.Related content

The fire animation is actually impressive! The nice use of 3 colors per sprite & sprite stacking is rather impressive. I would like to see this used in a Nintendo Entertainment System game for sure! Only 1 thing I would change about the fire is maybe add a red outline? The base-as it uses 3 colors to me is respectful to the limitations of the Nintendo hardware. With more practice, I would say that this would be an awesome fire.

Is there any chance I can take the fire and modify it? will give credit to origlinal

Eh, why not. Part of learning is using examples as inspiration. The inspiration for this one was a slow-mo video of a fire

Is there a way you could sort of make a fireball projectile very similar to these? I'm working on a GameMaker project and the fire ball projectile I use isn't too fitting. Also, when I import the gif to GameMaker, it gets... weird.

how many frames did you use to make this

Putting the gif in GameMaker Studio makes it weird.

How did you put the animation together? Its AWESOME!

Really love how it breaks off and makes a smooth, continuous loop

whats the fps and number of frames? Looks good btw!

Should be eight frames, and fps, and it should be running around 16-17 fps

I'm having trouble making flame particles for a game I'm working on. Do you have any tips and tricks you'd be willing to share? :3

Most stuff that moves keep the same volume as it moves. For many fuel sources, fire doesn't work this way because it is not quite the same physical matter in a form of a gas, liquid, or solid. You can get a convincing fire by making it grow and shrink in waves.

god damn. im so jelly i can't do fire animation for shit. this really does look awesome, specially the torch, exactly how i'd think fire would er.. burn.

The trick is to let the volume of the fire change as it animates, and how fire (at least that particular slow-mo vid of a fire I saw) behaves like waves.

i guess next time i attempt animated pixel fire I'll take this into consideration :3 thanks

The torchflame looks very good, though at the bigger flame, wouldn't the two parts meet up on some point?
I'm starting to see banding and clusters everywhere because of you.

I mostly wasn't really caring about whether the campfire made total sense and I mostly cared about making it look good. I wonder how one big campfire would look though...

Fires can get pretty big, would require some skill to animate it so it's not too repetitive and the chunks of fire not too big or too small..

At this tiny scale, animating a fire shouldn't be terribly difficult... it should probably take like 3 min of work or something for something around the size of the torch fire. Probably exaggerating but you get the idea. I don't think a huge fire should be 'difficult' if I know how a fire works to get as far as I did with this study.
