dotween VS PhysicsExamples2D

Being inspired by frameworks like DOTween and Microsofts own LINQ I decided to just make a similarly "build it up like a chain" approach. To illustrate (this was one of the effects shown in the video above):

A lot depends on what kind of UI and animations you need. If most you need is not-too-complex fading, moving, scaling and rotation buttons and screens around, then my advice is to look into tweening libraries like DOTween. With them you can setup simple (UI or not) animations in code (I think there's also a visual editor in the paid version, but I never used it). In my experience (mostly mobile gamedev) it's quite simple to use and is more than enough for animating UI (which itself is just simple or 3-/9-sliced PNGs).

I'm just working on UI for a school project. If you are not using it yet, you should try the DoTween (http://dotween.demigiant.com/ ) library out, it makes making animations through code super easy.

I may be telling you something you already know, but DOTween is both free and very useful for linear interpolation and tweening objects around and I'm using that to handle my grid based movement - and speaking of that, I mostly picked up how to put grid movement in using this tutorial

Unity. Can't say much. It's the most popular choice for 2D game development. But somehow, my heart wasn't in writing in C#. Also, for some entirely subjective reason, I had a skeptical attitude towards the engine.

Install Unity Hub from Unity's official website.

Sooo. Unity. It's a 3D game engine created by a company of the same name. It was published in 2005 and is one of the most used game engines in the world due to its simplicity, the number of documents, and the easy way to publish games on all platforms.

Unity is a popular game engine and development platform that is widely used for creating games, as well as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) applications. It provides a comprehensive set of tools, libraries, and features that enable developers to build interactive and immersive experiences across various platforms.

Creating 3D Videos: After downloading the desired models, you can import them into 3D software like Unity or Unreal Engine. These platforms allow you to create 3D scenes and animations, which can be exported as video files.

The next step I need help with is finding the right platform to market myself on. I’ve already been recommended Unity and Yahaha. Any guidance related to these will be appreciated, and if you have experience or recommendations for similar platforms, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Also, if you really want to make a game, you could try learning C# (it's very similar to Java) and use https://unity.com/ (Unity 3D is free if you have less than $100K of revenue/funding within the past 12 months).
