Amazing Dissolves

Dissolve away enemies, reveal characters and transform surfaces with glowing dissolve edges, matching particles and easy runtime controls. Built for Unity 6 URP.

Amazing Dissolves makes it easy to create dissolve and reveal effects for characters, props and environments, with customisable patterns, glowing edges and particles that follow the dissolving surface.

Start with a ready-made preset or create your own look. Add dissolve effects to your existing compatible URP materials in one click with Quick Setup, while keeping your original materials intact. Control the pattern, direction, timing, edge colour and particles, then trigger the effect through gameplay events, code or Timeline. Includes burn, dust, arcane, ice, spores, void, digital and sand presets, plus 12 demo scenes and documentation to help you build your own effects.

Third-party characters and environments shown in promotional videos are not included.

• One-click setup for your existing compatible URP materials, with originals preserved.
• Texture-based and procedural dissolve noise.
• UV, object-space and world-space projection.
• Directional reveals and dissolves starting from an impact point.
• Control masks for dissolve timing and protected areas.
• Customisable HDR edge colours, gradients and interior colouring.
• Edge particles with layered sparks, embers, smoke, dust and fragments.
• Reverse particle flow during materialisation.
• Box, sphere and capsule zones for cutouts, portals and visibility effects.
• Transitions between two complete material surfaces.
• Consistent clipping across shadows, depth and motion vectors.
• Grouped effects, material-slot targeting and staggered timing.
