This is a bonus lesson from our course on developing a tank ball video game in Unity. This lesson covers the particle system used for the tank death FX that appear when the tank blows up.

This is a layered particle effect that combines a sprite sheet toon explosion, and a series of mesh based particles affected by physics, and a distortion effect for a shockwave.
