A little thread about animating walk cycles in adventure games:
I've always tried to find the sweet spot between frame count and speed. You don't want to sacrifice character speed in favor of too smooth an animation. But I've always wanted to get my walk cycles to look natural. (๐งต1/6)
Great to hear! โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
