This is a quick hands-on look at Dragonbones by Egret Software. It's a 2D animation package similar in scope to Spine, Spriter or Creature, that enables you to animate a 2D sprite using traditional bone based animation techniques.

The upside is, it's free to use. There are however some downsides, as you will certainly see in this video!

Dragonbones *should* be available at:
http://dragonbones.com/en/

Although that webpage is currently down as of time of writing. The download page is currently working:
http://dragonbones.com/en/download.html#.WDRqd_krKUk

I would recommend downloading version 4.7 for now, for reasons you will also see in the video...
