Next Project: Particles

There are a few particles I want/need to do in order to make my racing game more ~immersive~ and believable.

First of all, I'd like to do a stereotypical "lightning bug" sort of particle, to give my level more depth. Something like this:

Real world example

Second of all, I'd like to make a universal "dust" particle. One that I can use for my goat 'splosion, and another I can use for rocks falling and stalagmites in my level. (Here's the original game example I referenced for my goats)

Dusty rock example (not too good about the landing, though)

Going for an effect like the first rock hitting the cliffside in the beginning.
