Animation brings video games alive. We believe creating great 2D animation requires not only powerful software, but a powerful workflow. Spine is dedicated to 2D skeletal animation, providing an efficient workflow both for creating amazing animation and for integrating it into your games. Our live demos show a sample of what is possible with Spine, right in your browser window. Play animations in layers, manipulate skeletons dynamically, and much more. Spine Academy has everything you need to get started learning Spine. Whether you like learning on your own or prefer face-to-face workshops and courses, we got you covered. Check our changelog and roadmap to see what changed between Spine versions and what's being worked on, and don't forget to sign up to our community forum. Animating is an iterative process.
