please do not engage with anything that I send and PLEASE REPORT both of the accounts so that less people get scammed

If you’re a friend or in local circles, please inform others

Thank you so much and sorry

Nup, flight only. I think with the games dark backgrounds, the legs will be hard to see most of the time anyway. So I’ll probably go without

Yeah I agree but I think 6 will end up too busy and unreadable, that’s why I settled on 4

Yeah maybe bluesky has improved their gif compression!

Ya I thought 6 might end up too busy/unreadable, that’s why I went with 4. And ty :)

legs or no legs?
fingers crossed this is still readable after bluesky butchers it

Rat trap is truly excellent, I hope it does well because it really deserves to

Thank you! Not sure what you mean, the whole sketch is copied to continue working on it

Pixel art and animating is 90% cleaning up and polishing, and 10% “the fun part” 😶

been following you this whole time thinking you were a wine benporter/bexporter

ahh, I should've paid more attention!

Are the red frogs seeking vengeance for Jerry? Asking for a friend, I’d never

Yeah I think so too. Might need to experiment a bit

True. I think we will just have to experiment a bit and see what feels right. I do like the idea of having them go in top of the conveyor when there’s no block in the way (if kicking them off the wall feels wrong especially)

Either they just get stuck in place at the top pixel, or maybe we kick them off the wall by 1 or 2 pixels so they start falling? No idea how we should handle this scenario

So you're making a platformer with conveyor belts. These conveyor belts also move the player vertically, up or down depending which way they are spinning. There's no extra momentum that shoots the player upwards once they reach the top. What should happen when they reach the top of the conveyor?

previous gif didn't convey what i wanted it to

i probably would have given up on this site already if the other one weren't so god awful. can we get some actual gif support sometime @support.bsky.team
you vs the gif support she tells you not to worry about:
