How to create an animation like this?

Hey guys,

Im really new with Unity. Im not sure if this is the correct place to post this thread but im trying to create an animation similar to what I have attached (created in photoshop)

Timing is a bit off, but I think that the general idea should be clear

this will*be for a HUD layer using Unity’s UI tools

i think unity is a bit overkill for your job. maybe macromedia flash would be an easier choice.

Flash is passé. Unity is fine and free. Flash is neither.

so goat, do you know of a way to create this effect?

I think a tweening library like iTween might be a good place to start. Also for the glow you could use a additive texture.

Thanks ZephyrSys this is exactly what I was looking for

Yeah Macromedia Flash is a good choice to make your animation and it will give you the best quality animation. Please share if you face any problem in making that in Macromedia Flash!
