    I'm making a platformer game, and I would like to make some platforms shake, before they start to fall, in order to let the player know that its about to.

    Any help, or tips are welcome, thanks for taking your time to read this post!

    Maybe use an animation that is triggered after a certain time after the player touches the top of the platform?

    I'm not up to doing animations yet, I'm still doing game play/mechanics & prototyping using placeholder art. I'd suggest checking Unity Learn for tutorials
