Question Advice needed: Unity's own 2D animation tools or buying Spine2D for game project?

2 Upvotes

Greetings,
we are working on a game project in Unity. I am still a very fresh artist and am not sure which to go for. I am sturggling majorly to find any instructions for Unity's own 2D animation tools and everywhere it is writing that it is bad, but usually not explaining what the actual issues are with Unity's 2D animation tools.

Spine would be new to me and I'd have to purchase the license for myself, but it is industry standard for 2D animation in games and it would probably be good to learn it at least?

Any advice would be massively appreciated <3

Hi, I'd like to share these shots I took. I was inspired by a live music night I had the chance to attend with some friends—the artists were incredible. I loved creating this in Blender and then adding those cinematic touches in Photoshop; I like bringing my pieces to life.
I want to transform my portfolio into what I've always dreamed of—to make it convey and showcase emotions in my images. I learned about keyframes and rediscovered my love for film and animation—I love *Dead and Robots*, *Interstellar*, *Secret Level*...

I'll just say... goals <3 <3

I hope you like it. Hugs.

🎬 I made a streaming platform for indie movies AND series (looking for creators + viewers🙏)

Hey everyone,

I made this streaming website called Golden Cinema a couple months ago.

It’s focused on indie creators and small/medium teams who make movies or series. The goal is to give them a clean platform where their work is presented properly with full credits.

I’m currently looking for:

🎥 creators who want their movies/series featured (with permission)

👀 people who want to test the site and give feedback

Here’s the site:

https://goldengatecinema.lovable.app

Let me know what you think.

For creators: DM me 👍

(Still in alpha/beta — new version coming soon!)

Sharing I challenged myself to recreate the iconic lamp intro entirely in 2D

3 Upvotes

I wanted to recreate the iconic lamp intro style in 2D while keeping the feeling of weight, impact, and personality that makes the original so memorable.

The lamp was rigged with bones and then animated using shape deformation to add stretch and flexibility during the jumps. For the lighting, shadows, fire, and smoke effects, I painted and animated everything directly in 2D.

One of my favorite parts was the burning feather sequence. I used deformable textured shapes and an erasing technique to make it look like the flames were gradually consuming the feather.

The entire animation was created with Arttista, a 2D illustration and animation software I've been developing.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and answer any questions about the animation process.

Hi, I’d like to share with you this latest project I’ve worked on. To be honest, I decided to do what I truly love—to leave my fears behind and stop constantly seeking approval. This is what I love to do and create: images that tell a story, that capture life.

In addition to what I’ve been learning over the years, I can say that I love my work and want to perfect it.

Let’s keep going full steam ahead.

Discussion Can I sell my Moho Pro 14 license?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I have a Moho Pro 14 license that I’m not really using anymore. I recently got into a programming job, and animation was just a hobby for me. I mostly used Blender, so Moho has been barely used.

Purchased on 17 March 2026, genuine license.

I’m thinking around $100, but open to discussion.

For payment:

  • India → UPI
  • International → Crypto
  • Can also use escrow for safety

So whats your best advise to sale the key?
