Panthera Runtime - a Defold library designed to seamlessly integrate animations created with Panthera 2.0 Editor. This runtime can play animation for Collections and GUI nodes with also a animation cursor support.
- Seamless Integration: Import and use Panthera 2.0 directly in Defold with one click.
- Full Animation Support: Supports all animation features provided by Panthera 2.0 including all available properties, game events, template animations and more.
- Flexible Usage: Compatible with both Collections and GUI nodes in Defold, allowing for flexible usage across different game elements.
- Animation Cursor: Provides a way to control animation manually, allowing for precise control over playback and synchronization with game events.
Read the Panthera 2.0 Editor guide to learn about the Panthera 2.0 Editor. This is the animation editor that you can use to create animations for your Defold projects, created with Defold engine and Druid UI framework!
Open your game.project file and add the following lines to the dependencies field under the project section:
https://github.com/Insality/defold-tweener/archive/refs/tags/5.zip
https://github.com/Insality/panthera/archive/refs/tags/runtime.5.zip
After that, select Project ▸ Fetch Libraries to update library dependencies. This happens automatically whenever you open a project so you will only need to do this if the dependencies change without re-opening the project.
Note: The library size is calculated based on the build report per platform
| Platform | Library Size |
