Stellaris - Crisis system effects

This year I had the opportunity to add some more system effects to Stellaris, and one of the things we wanted to add was creating a bigger, visual impact when the crisis happens and they start taking over the world.
The extradimensional and the contingency effects are for how the home system of those two crisis looks, and since the swarm crisis don't have a home system they have a more subtle effect that spreads in every system that they conquer.

It was super cool effects to work on and I couldn't have done it without all the feedback from the rest of the art team here at Paradox.
