Revamped animation editor. Visual shader editor. x branch used OpenGL ES 2.0 / OpenGL 2.1 ( GLES2 ) as its rendering API. This worked well, but had many limitations preventing us to use more modern rendering techniques. all rendering code was rewritten to use the more modern OpenGL ES 3.0 / OpenGL 3.3 2D skeletons.
