DragonRuby Animation Editor
A browser tool made in HTML5

I like simple tools with no strings attached; tools that don't prescribe a certain way of making your game. I recently found two such tools that I really wanted to use in DragonRuby:

  • Bézier-based easing functions (like your web browser uses in animation)
  • Second-order dynamic systems for controlling procedural animation (as explained in this excellent YouTube video)

So I wrote a library for adding those to DragonRuby games. But since both methods involve tweaking numbers repeatedly until your game "feels" right, I figured they would be much easier to use if you had a simple GUI that let you play around with them visually first, then copy the appropriate code to use in your game. So that's what I built!

I hope you get some use out of it in your next game!
