Glitch Distortion Effect

So while I was doing to usual experimenting around with studio, I discovered this pretty cool glitch effect that doesn’t use any GUI Objects or Scripts

Normally, I would keep something like this to myself, but it is a pretty nice effect that could potentially be used in the sense of horror games and etc.
It is actually incredibly simple to replicate this:

  • Use any image you want for the particle, preferably a solid color image.
  • Setting the size to a large value
  • ZOffset must be 0 or less for it to distort. Speed should be 0 as well but it doesn’t really have to.
  • Parent the emitter to the head of your character. It works with other parts of the character but the head seems to work the best

Of course going the extra mile would produce much better results but I didn’t experiment much with this. It would be nice to see what people do with this if its something worth looking at.

Cool, this will surely be useful.

Already found a very nice use for this…

Nice! This is exactly what I was looking for, haha. Thank you. :+1:
It works great.
Once I’ve implemented it, I might show my results here. :pray:
