    I'm struggling with a powerUp animation I'm doing. I want the player to notice that the powerup is running out. What do you guys suggest, how does this need to look like?

    I tried with a blink animation of the character, but it looks rather weird... any other ideas?

    I have an end sound alarm and blink right now. Still not really happy with the blink. Will see in beta testing what players say. Thanks for your inputs!

    The problem with an end sound is that a lot of people play games with sound off. It would be helpful if there was a place to put an end animation for the powerup, even a simple fade or something.


    How did you add the blink animation? Was it an effect? how did you connect it to the powerup?
