I’d like to have text pop up on screen when playing the game to give players info etc. I can fade it in and out and slide it on and off, but im wondering if there’s any solutions to make it more flashy?
You could take a look at iTween. It is free and allows smooth manipulation of gameObjects with scale/translation/rotation with a bunch of built in animation curves.
Consider using a scale up, and float up combination?
Failing that you could make some simple particle effects that burst behind the text as it appears? Also, get a good looking font to use, anything is better than the default.
Thanks, i already use itween for other elements of my gui, just wondered if there were something purpose made. I guess I’ll have to do it the hard way!
