I have returned to Unity 5 after having tried Corona SDK for some time. Unity's IDE is just too irresistible for a right-brained creative like me - and it's now 100% FREE!. I have been looking at Spriter for modular skeletal animation and would like to know what other must-have tools are needed for creating simple platform games, point and click adventures and interactive kids story books - that's the area i wish to work within. Thanks in advance
paint + something for animation (i have spriter too). I think, in new Unity 2d built-in tools will be something for skeletal animation. So in future paint+Unity will be enough at first for me."
