Summary:
Hi all! Animation Curves was one of my favorite 2.3 features, so I made an intro tutorial, along w/ a series of tutorials trying to use them in as many ways as possible. (you can watch them in any order)

While making the series, I also realized that game maker 2.3.2 will have another pretty big animation curves update, so I used game maker beta for some sections of the tutorial to make sure those features were included as well

Skip to 8:29 to see an overview of all the 2.3.2 features

Here are the other examples so far (NOTE: unfortunately these aren't compliant w/ forum standards since I was missing semi colons, so be sure to add them as you're following the tutorials)

Elastic Lever Animation
Sliding Camera Transition
Damage Flash (and color animation in general)

Playlist w/ full series
