Particles2D brings real particle power to RPG Maker MZ and MV. One API, two backends. Each emitter runs on CPU (full Godot parity) or GPU (custom analytic shader, ~zero CPU cost); you pick per emitter or let "auto" decide. Same params, same look on both.

Design effects visually, drop them into your game with a single note tag or command, and watch your maps come alive. No external dependencies. Single-file plugin.

What is included

• CPU + GPU backends. CPU gives full parity: curves, flipbook anim, tile collisions, ribbons, sub-emitters, turbulence-lite. GPU runs an analytic vertex-shader sim with ~zero CPU/frame. Auto picks the best one; switch live anytime.
• Preset library. fire, smoke, explosion, sparkles, heal, magic, rain, snow, leaves, dust, fog, embers — ready to use with one note tag.
• Full emitter API. amount, lifetime, explosiveness, speed, gravity, damping, spread, direction, scale curves, color ramps, hue variation, angular velocity, trails, sub-emitters, and more.
• Emission shapes. point, sphere, sphereSurface, rect, ring, and directed points via script.
• Tile collisions. off, bounce, or hide — with configurable bounce factor. Tile-based on CPU, groundY+bounce on GPU.
• Sub-emitters & trails. Particles can spawn child bursts on death and leave velocity-stretched ribbons.
• 8 procedural sprite shapes. soft, disk, square, triangle, diamond, star, line, ring — no image files needed. Or load your own PNG with flipbook animation support.
• Blend modes. normal, add, screen, multiply.
• Layers. below, above, or screen (weather-style).
• Note tags + plugin commands. Attach emitters to events with <particles preset:fire>, burst on touch with <pBurst preset:explosion>, or use the event editor commands (pSpawn, pBurst, pStop, pRestart, pClear, pSetRatio, pPreset, pDebug).
• Script call API. Spawn, burst, stop, restart, clear, set backend, and access emitters directly from JavaScript.
• FPS auto-degrade. Scales particle ratios down when FPS drops, restores automatically.
• Savefile persistence. Optionally store runtime emitters (config only) inside save files.
• Debug overlay. F7 toggles alive count, backend, step ms, and per-emitter status.
• MV fallback. Includes the positional MV plugin command parser.

Who this is for

• Developers who want real particle effects in MZ or MV without writing shaders
• Anyone building combat, magic, weather, or ambient atmosphere
• Anyone tired of static animations and wants dynamic, physics-driven FX
• Anyone who has used Godot's particles and wants the same power inside RPG Maker

If you only need a single static animation, this is overkill. If you need a real particle layer for RPG Maker, this is the one.

Before you buy

• Requires RPG Maker MZ. Also runs on MV through the legacy command parser.
• Single-file plugin. No external dependencies.
• This is not a drag-and-drop plugin. You tag events, tune parameters, and read the documentation. It rewards understanding.
• No formal support contract. Community help is available on the Discord.
