# Next steps

Congratulations on completing your first VFX art with Roblox Studio! Now that you have experience creating custom special effects with unique visuals and behavior, you can share your art with others and extend your skills by learning about Studio's additional VFX features.

## Share with others

When you first publish a game, it's automatically set to **private** so that you're the only one who can play it. However, creating on Roblox is always more fun when you can share what you make with others. See [making games public](/docs/en-us/production/publishing/publish-games-and-places.md#make-game-public) for steps on how to make your game public.

## Continue learning

Particle emitters are an excellent start for creating VFX, but Studio offers many additional VFX features to boost the visuals of your games, including:

- [Beams](/docs/en-us/effects/beams.md) that render a texture between two points that stay still.
- [Trails](/docs/en-us/effects/trails.md) that render a texture between two points that move.
- [Flipbooks](/docs/en-us/effects/particle-emitters.md#flipbooks) that animate a texture over time.
- [Light sources](/docs/en-us/effects/light-sources.md) that emit light at specific points in the 3D space.
