Adobe Animate

Adobe Animate (formally Adobe Flash Professional and Macromedia Flash Professional) is a multimedia authoring and computer animation program developed by Adobe Systems.

Animate is mostly used to design vector graphics and animation, and publish the same for television programs, online video, websites, web applications, rich internet applications, and video games. The program also offers support for raster graphics, rich text, audio and Flash Video|video embedding, and ActionScript scripting. Animations may be published for HTML5, WebGL, Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) animation and spritesheets, and legacy Flash Player (SWF) and Adobe AIR formats.

It was first released in 1996 as FutureSplash Animator, and then renamed Macromedia Flash upon its acquisition by Macromedia. It was created to serve as the main authoring environment for the Adobe Flash platform, vector-based software for creating animated and interactive content. It was renamed Adobe Animate in 2016 to better reflect its market position then, since over a third of all content created in Animate uses HTML5.

2005 FBDJ
Prior to forming TPaw, Z primarly used Adobe Animate, then known as Macromedia Flash Pro before it was brought by Adobe, for artwork and animations. The tool was used to create the original 2005 Furry Blue DJ comics and Flash animations.

Attack of the Video Games
During the Fall of 2005, Z put together a quick comedy cartoon known as Attack of the Video Games. It gained a small following and became a hit with all of his friends. Unfortunately, it ended on a cliffhanger and hasn't been picked up since. Like 2015 FBDJ, it's considered an alternative universe.

2007-08
Within the 2007-08, Z created a series of short animations and flash games: Coding, ZC's Dress Up games, and the incomplete Moving. The former two were hit with Coding being re-released on YouTube while ZC's Dress Up gained a sequel and a small following.

Post-TPaw
Older work continues to be maintained using Macromedia Flash Pro 8. Z refuses to use Adobe Flash Pro or Animate due to bloat, DRM and, to a lesser extent, the fact it's proprietary. OpenToonz is being evaluated as a successor to Flash Pro 8 for future works in both mediums.
