falling-leaves

separate

Build falling leaves that read as leaves, with each one tumbling on its own axis so it presents a face, thins to an edge, and opens out again, and with its sideways slip driven by that same tumble. Covers the 2-D canvas build and the instanced-3-D variant, where leaves are recycled from, density-versus-count maths, depth layering, colour under a tone-mapped composite, reduced motion, and visibility pausing. Use for autumn maple, sakura petals, blossom, ash, snowfall shapes, or any drifting foliage where a generic particle field reads as confetti.
