About the project

A library of 232 pixel art effects and animations (fire, explosions, magic, weather, UI), each a small dependency-free JS module, plus a Claude Code skill for authoring your own.

Useful for
  • Add a frost nova effect to a browser game on canvas or Phaser
  • Export fire and explosions categories as sprite sheets for Godot or Unity
  • Generate a new effect via the Claude Code skill and render its preview

4.5 Early signal Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 30, 2026, 17:16 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

01530October 30, 2026October 30, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-30 (UTC), 16:12–17:13: 140 → 167 stars (+27). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +35 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 0 days old and already has 167 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Top new repositories this week: #144.
  • About 59 forks a day — people are taking the code.

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
