Particle Research and Progress

 I recently finished (for the most part!) my firefly particles, so I'm currently working on my dust clouds and a new particle just for fun: butterflies. Butterflies /could/ work in the biome parts of my level. I don't entirely plan on using them because the draw might ruin my framerate, but I would like to create them to test my subuv animation skills.

I got the inspiration for these particles from Rayman 2: The Great Escape for the psone. In the forest levels, they have occasional particles that flap their wings in subuv animation, and it's really cute.

(Pictured: The iOS version apparently?...)

Just for reference, I also looked up some firefly/dust tutorials and examples, to get a scope for what mine should look like:
