Making something look jelly, jucy, bouncy

I watched this video a while ago about making a game look "juicy" by adding a bit of "bounce" to it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fy0aCDmgnxg

I want to try this out, but I wonder if anyone else have played around with this and know any good formulas for making this happening? I guess you have to manipulate size and rotation in a way that makes static object look alive and more dynamic.

I think they did something like that to the Menu Text in Kingdom Rush: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...Fh_xkr34#t=57s

It is subtle but it adds very polished look to the menu that I dont think would be there if it was just static text.

Is there any examples of things like this somewhere?

This is just so true:

load this and switch between "ENTER" and "2" - this will open my eyes again, how these details (beside the main game concept) are important for a great user expierience!

I believe they actually describe one formula in the video for easing in... which is just:

Position + (Target-Position)*0.1

I use that one a bit in the current game I'm building.

But it would be great to get some more formulas listed here... like for an ease in with a bit of bounce/settle.

I believe for that "juicy" game, they probably had some sort of tweening library that they just took advantage of. I wish MMF had a cross platform tweening extension or something... or just had tweening built in.

It have: easing Extension!

I really like the rubber band looking effect of when the ball hits the walls. That alone is a great effect! Does anyone have any examples using the easing object and how it's used?

Maybe we should work together to make a big example file with different cool effects and post here in one mfa. :)

Another cool effect is the way the trees move in Farmville 2. I am pretty sure that is not animated but by using some kind of scaling or something, http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...0ZY01gY#t=263s

Care to explain a bit more in detail King_Cool?

I know King_Cool is very busy at the moment, but I've seen him code amazing effects using what he had mentioned above in his post. Pure awesome!! I don't understand it, but it's eye candy for sure and fits the juicy/ Bouncy/ Jelly stuff..!!
