Animations!!
Animations have finally been added to Exodus!!
Aside from the original Idle animation, we also have a run cycle and a jump/falling animation.
These were difficult for me as I had a short deadline and I'm not an animator. Thanks to some critique and resource learning from Cat Lastowka I was able to make some rudimentary animations to give a sense of character life.
I would love to have more experience in this field as it was hugely exciting to see play out in the game.
One big challenge for this was the complexity and rigidity of the character. This made it difficult to use standard animation techniques as I don't have the skill to keep the animations consistent. So I animated using a puppet animation in photoshop by cutting up the idle image and moving each mobile part.
