Unreal Engine is traditionally recognized for its 3D capabilities. While "Paper 2D" exists as a built-in feature, it lacks advanced animation management tools. is a specialized plugin designed to bridge this gap, allowing developers to bring 3D-style animation workflows (Animation Blueprints, State Machines) to 2D sprites, making development easier and more efficient. 2.
