procedural blowtorch
The procedural blowtorch was made by copying a curve to the end of the blowtorch, adjusting the silhouette of the main flame using the curve's pscale, and adding additional flair at the end using noise. For the contact effect, a similar process was used to create a noisy shape at the impact point.
Destruction
Destruction effects were created using a combination of procedural and simulated techniques. The molten char was created procedurally based on the laser's impact, with the smoke emitting from the hottest points of that char.
lasers
Similar to the blowtorch, laser effects were created by copying points to curves!
