Creating a Particle System in Inspector

A particle system is a special kind of object that spits out particles - thousands of tiny images that float around in your environment based on the rules specified in the system.

Particle systems can be used for a variety of effects such as smoke, exhaust, rain, bubbles, and dust. Particle systems are extremely efficient, allowing the animation of tens of thousands of particles on screen with no perceptible performance hit.
