I'd like to make a cannon shoot out fireworks after a player beats a level. Not sure how to get the settings quite correct on the particle system and the settings actually shooting them out...Any ideas? Thanks!

    You could just make an animation. Meaning make it all in the graphics not the code.

    DreamLab -

    I'd love to do animations, but I don't have the ability. 1) don't have the software (not even sure what software to get/use) and 2) On a scale of 1 to 10 my artistic ability is at a -1. I can't even make stick figures look good.

    well I think you can do it in adobe after effects... you can get a free trial for that at adobe.com, then youtube/ search web on how to do firework in AE (after effects). Then render the vid of the fireworks and pick a time and pause after that time and take a screen shot of it. Do this for as long as you want then use animations in gs and ta da!<><

    Have you seen the fireworks demo? Sorry I'm on iPad and can't paste a link but it uses particles and looks pretty cool.

    Good idea scoots but that template is very complex and hard to add to your game or change to what you want... if you wan to check it out you can search it on the search bar on the first screen that comes up in creator <><

    I'm pretty sure you can't use a demo for commercial means, like apps.
