DoTween - The Big Demo

Image
I love DoTween , and have been using it extensively at work and personal projects, ever since I heard of it. Tweens are a great and cheap way to get a polished look for all transitions and animations in your game or mobile app. Stop coding movement by hand for menu items, HUDs, simple translations etc. if you are still doing it. So I made a small 2d demo in Unity5 with DoTween, where you can play with different types of tweens, including an option to choose a different tween for different axes (X and Y) Its open-source btw, and you can play with the code yourself on github .

You will find a block under tag SDK 4.0.3 like this <sdk:arch...

These tips are not just for game development, this applies to almost anyone who wants to create stuff and can apply to any project in your life. ExtraCredits is a really good youtube channel for anyone who is interested in making games. Today I saw this video on their GameDesign playlist . It gave some amazing tips as listed below. This is just a summary for those crazy people who prefer reading instead of watching videos, like me :) 1) Don't plan a project that will take you more than a month This is a great point. After years of having dropped projects, prototypes and trying to do too many things, or everything that excites me at the moment. I guess this is a must follow. 2) Its gonna take you more than a month, if you plan for a month. Haha, yes, so true. But don't panic, but if you hit 3 months, its time to revisit. 3) Don't spend too much time designing Don't spend too much time designing stuff you don't know if you can build yet. Experience is w...
