Example

import { KBTween } from ".../tween.js";
import { easings } from ".../easingpackage.js";

var k = kaboom(); // Make Kaboom global but also a variable
var twnlib = KBTween(k); // Create new TweenLib instance, pass in Kaboom
                         // This fixes Intellisense on VSCode not picking up on how Kaboom imports plugins
                         // Otherwise, if your IDE is smart enough, you can just pass in the tween lib normally, using KBTween as a plugin
loadBean();

var bean = add([
	sprite("bean"),
	pos(64, 64),
	color(255, 255, 255)
]);

twnlib.tween(bean.pos, [ "x" ], {
	from: 0,
	to: width() - 64,
	time: 3.2,
	type: tweentypes.PINGPONG
});

twnlib.tween(bean.pos, [ "y" ], {
	from: 0,
	to: height() - 64,
	time: 2,
	type: tweentypes.PINGPONG
});

twnlib.tween(bean.color, [ "g", "r" ], {
