neon and/or geometric explosions

[schnoo]

The explosions can come from shmups or non shmups, but I am looking for design/animation inspiration in the vein of geometry wars. the shapes explode to pieces, like a square shape explodes into four lines.

The neon graphic effect is also desired but they can be mutually exclusive.

If you know any games that have an explosion to geometric pieces, please share!
If you know any games with a neon effect, please share as well!

Thanks!

Anything by Kenta Cho, really. Parsec47 has some great examples.

Hellsinker also has some enemies that warp or stretch as a death animation rather than exploding (like the big stones later in the game).

thanks for the suggestion. i found pixeljunk sidescroller has similar effects to geometry wars too.
