Sample

We have created a simple sample scene using Confetti FX.
You can experience the sample space from the STYLY GALLERY.

How to download and import on Unity

Start a new project in Unity.
Once the project is up and running, we’ll move on to downloading the desired assets from the Asset Store.
The Asset Store window can be selected from the “Window” menu at the top.
Once the Asset Store is open, search for “Confetti FX” in the “Search for assets” section.

After searching, Confetti FX will be displayed, and you can download and import it.
Please note that there is a fee for Confetti FX assets.

How to use

You can use it by placing a prefab in your scene. 2D and 3D prefabs are available.
For both 2D and 3D, there are three types of confetti: Directional, Explosion, and Fountain.
There are also several types of colors, from monochrome to colorful.

The following video shows a 2D Fountain type prefab, only the 2D Fountain type has a standard starting point for confetti that looks like a spark!
By the way, the 2D prefab can also be used in Unity’s 3D project, so you can STYLY upload it to your VR space!

The following video shows a 2D Explosion type prefab.
It could be used to make confetti burst on the screen when the player scores a goal!
It looks great when the background is set to a dark color such as black or deep blue, or a light color such as white.
If you put a lot of them together, they look like fireworks.

Arranging confetti assets

There are two ways to arrange the confetti asset by adjusting its inspector.
The first is to change the shape of the confetti.

The first is to change the shape of the confetti. You can change the shape of the confetti to Box, Hemisphere, Cone, etc. from the pull-down menu under Inspector > Particle System > Shape.

Select Hemisphere

Select Hemisphere

In the following video, the light blue confetti is the standard shape with no changes, and the orange confetti has its shape changed to Hemisphere.

The second method is to loop the movement of the confetti.
By default, confetti does not loop.
However, here is a way to make it loop without stopping the movement.

To do this, go to Inspector > Particle System > Prefab Name > Looping, and check the checkbox.

Turn on the Looping checkbox.

Turn on the Looping checkbox.

The confetti will now be looped.
