Iterate with
Unprecedented Speed

We get it: A single flipbook traditionally takes over a week to get right and is reused over and over. We got sick of that struggle and built EmberGen to give us the results we needed. EmberGen uses the full power of your GPU—so you can simulate and render volumetric phenomena in real-time for faster iterations than ever before. Utilize random seeds to generate new variations on the fly. All simulations are deterministic, so you can be sure the simulation is the same each time you open your project.

From Game Studios

"It feels like cheating... I'm not spending hours tweaking settings and waiting for previews to render. It's real-time, right there, as I drag sliders finessing the final look of my effect it's happening in front of me. Then it's a simple one-click and I have a game-ready sprite sheet to use! Very well thought out program, I'm excited for my team to get to use this on our studio's games going forward."

Lead Visual Effects Artist at Twisted Pixel Games

"EmberGen is a game changer for real-time VFX artists doing pyro sims for games. The production and iteration of a sim is at least 6x faster for me now. And converting that sim to a texture atlas I can test in-game is instant. I consider this a must-have VFX production tool."

Jeff Kuipers

Visual Effects Director at Alchemy VFX

"EmberGen made me feel right at home, since I’m used to procedural workflows. It's very responsive, and great fun to iterate with. It's hard to intentionally make things look bad, has tons of options to tweak and export the simulations, and a solid renderer so you know what you see is what you get. I will not be surprised if EmberGen becomes the go-to tool for VFX in the games industry, it's that good."

"I have never been able to prototype effects with iteration times this small before. The time savings are huge."
