Gooey
Elemental & Nature · Static · pure CSS
A goo/blob morph using an SVG Gaussian-blur and color-matrix gooey filter. Liquid, organic lettering.
How it works
Gooey is a static elemental & nature text effect rendered entirely in CSS. It relies on an inline SVG <defs> block (filters, gradients or clip-paths), which the HTML export carries alongside the CSS.
Controls
Gooey exposes 2 dedicated controls — Hue and Gooeyness — on top of the shared type controls (font, weight, letter-spacing and case). Open it in the generator to tune every value live, then copy the updated CSS.
CSS
/* Gooey — generated with TEXT-FX
* HTML: requires the inline <svg> filter defs — see the HTML export.
* Font: 'Space Grotesk', sans-serif (load from Google Fonts).
*/
.text-effect {
font-family: 'Space Grotesk', sans-serif;
font-weight: 400;
letter-spacing: 0px;
text-transform: none;
}
.text-effect {
color: hsl(106 85% 60%);
filter: url(#text-effect-goo);
text-shadow: 0 1px 0 hsl(106 90% 80% / 0.85);
}
HTML
This effect needs the markup below (per-letter spans, SVG defs, or a data-text attribute).
<style>
.text-effect {
font-family: 'Space Grotesk', sans-serif;
font-weight: 400;
letter-spacing: 0px;
text-transform: none;
}
.text-effect {
color: hsl(106 85% 60%);
filter: url(#text-effect-goo);
text-shadow: 0 1px 0 hsl(106 90% 80% / 0.85);
}
</style>
<svg width="0" height="0" style="position:absolute" aria-hidden="true"><defs>
<filter id="text-effect-goo" x="-30%" y="-30%" width="160%" height="160%">
<feGaussianBlur in="SourceGraphic" stdDeviation="5" result="blur"/>
<feColorMatrix in="blur" mode="matrix" values="1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 18 -7" result="goo"/>
<feComposite in="SourceGraphic" in2="goo" operator="atop"/>
</filter>
</defs></svg>
