    Hello everyone!
    What's the best and most correct way to create an image alpha mask, that can be shaped by geometric manipulations in Unity 2D?
    Example:
    I have an image:
    cat.png
    and array of points. I need to cut that image by drawing geometry from those points:
    cat_1.png cat_2.png

    I'm not a coder but I think a 2D boolean operation would be a good starting point for research.

    Hey there!

    If you still searching for some masking system, you can try Sprite Mask.

    It is a new asset at the store (released today). Maybe it can be helpful for you.
