TODO:
~~– Make it simpler to use: maybe custom inspector for effect dropdowns, movement direction etc.~~
– Events? Event chaining..(after 1 effect finishes, fire next event/fx..)
– Add fade in/out option (alpha first, maybe color from/to later)
– Option for effect starting event: On Start(), On Enabled(), On Click(), On Awake()…
– Option: [ ] SelfDestruct after finished (script or whole gameobject)
– Some documentation
– More examples
– ..

Thanks for your sharing.

Animations and some tween plug-ins (like iTween) can do the same thing. You may have a try:)

  yes, animation on the transform values is quite good/simple. Just want to make the plugin to do things even simpler (just pick & select few options – done, not good? then change option – fixed)
