local SizeMultiple = 1.1
local SizeShrink = .9

    local self = setmetatable({}, button)
    
    local LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer
    local PlayerGui = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent
    
    local AudioFolder = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Sound")

    local MouseEnterSFX = SFXFolder:WaitForChild("UI Click")
    
    local NormalSize = ButtonToClick.Size
    
    local HoverSize = UDim2.new(NormalSize.X.Scale * SizeMultiple, NormalSize.X.Offset, NormalSize.Y.Scale * SizeMultiple, NormalSize.Y.Offset)
    local ClickSize = UDim2.new(NormalSize.X.Scale * SizeShrink, NormalSize.X.Offset, NormalSize.Y.Scale * SizeShrink, NormalSize.Y.Offset)

    local HoverTween = TweenService:Create(ButtonToClick, Tweeninfo, {Size = HoverSize})
    self.ShrinkTween = TweenService:Create(ButtonToClick, Tweeninfo, {Size = NormalSize})
    
    ButtonToClick.MouseEnter:Connect(function()
        HoverTween:Play()
        MouseEnterSFX:Play()

function button:Onclick()
    local ButtonToClick : TextButton = self.Button
    local CurrentSize : UDim2 = ButtonToClick.Size
    
    local ShrinkButtonSize = UDim2.new(CurrentSize.X.Scale * SizeShrink, CurrentSize.X.Offset, CurrentSize.Y.Scale * SizeShrink, CurrentSize.Y.Offset)
    
    local ClickSizeTween = TweenService:Create(self.Button, Tweeninfo, {Size = ShrinkButtonSize})
    local ClickSFX = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Sound"):WaitForChild("SFX"):WaitForChild("MouseEnterSoundEffect")
    
    ClickSizeTween:Play()

    ClickSizeTween.Completed:Connect(function()
        self.ShrinkTween:Play()
