Sparkle Lite
A free, drop-in game-feel ("juice") plugin for Godot 4.6 — seven layered feedback types (camera shakes, hit pauses, screen flashes, audio one-shots, scale punches, and gameplay hooks) authored in a custom inspector and fired with a single play() call.
GDScript only. Zero dependencies. MIT licensed.
$FeedbackPlayer.play() # fire the full authored sequence
$FeedbackPlayer.play(1.8) # same sequence at 1.8x intensity

The seven feedbacks
| # | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Camera Shake | Layered-noise positional + rotational shake on a Camera3D. Per-axis amplitudes, smooth/chaotic noise blend, distance falloff. |
| 2 | Camera Shake 2D | Same shake for Camera2D — pixel amplitudes, degree rotation, distance falloff in pixels. |
| 3 | Hit Pause | Drops Engine.time_scale briefly for hit-stop. Lowest-wins stacking, 500 ms safety cap. |
| 4 | Screen Flash 2D | Full-viewport colour flash on a persistent CanvasLayer. MODULATE or ADD blend. |
| 5 | Audio | AudioStreamPlayer2D/3D one-shots with pitch randomisation. POOL / CACHE / ONE_TIME allocation. |
| 6 | Scale Punch | Elastic scale pop on any Node2D, Node3D, or Control. Last-starts-wins per target. |
| 7 | Call | Calls a method or emits a signal on a target node at its place in the timeline. Bridge to gameplay code. |
