Package import, stability and fixes

Hi there! We just released a new Text Animator for Unity update, version 3.5.0! (version 3.4 was lost due to shenanigans… BUT the asset is not stuck anymore in the submission realm!)

In a nutshell

We have shipped a lot of fixes, as well as improving the import pipeline (now it's marked as a package) and prepared our backend for releasing even more easily in the future, including letting the Scripting API come back.

We are also super happy to say that we have completed the majority of support requests! Read how we did it in our blog.

You are also able to rotate letters with a custom pivot, and have more control over the "append" text method.
