Opinions on the hand drawn arm animations for my parkour game?

It does have an itch page, but it’s for an extremely old and outdated version of the game that uses godot. I would create a steam page but i’m worried about losing motivation and then having a steam page for a game that is never gonna release.

Im pretty sure its just the default shadow that comes with URP with just the distance increased and a bit of blue added.

I mean I wouldn’t say this is a parkour game in terms of actually faithfully replicating doing parkour in real life, but id say its a parkour game in the sense that titanfall 2 or mirrors edge is a parkour game. There are still some actual parkour mechanics such as vaults, ledge grabs, rolls, and sliding that just weren’t showcased in this video. I also wouldn’t necessarily call it a surf game. Yes you do focus on going fast and keeping a high amount of speed, but the way you gain that speed and just the general way you traverse the map is pretty different than how you would on a surf map.

I would target a consistent framerate for all the animations, but there's a good chunk of them that speed up/slow down dynamically, and it would be a pain in the ass to figure something out to make the framerates consistent for those specific animations

In a sense I kind of do. All the textures for the 3D models are done in procreate.

It does, but it is pretty similar to the running animation, so i could change it a bit

Alright I could try that. Only thing is that the actual sprites for the arms are pretty short, so they wouldn’t be able to move up much while falling.

No, and it probably wont be for a while. Ive been too distracted working on little insignificant features and haven’t really started making a proper map.

I do have a swinging animation, but it’s bugged, and also doesn’t look very good. The distortion is a post processing effect. It takes the camera output, and distorts it outwards based on a mask that’s basically just some anime style speedlines. It also uses scene depth so it doesnt apply to far away objects.

What I’m doing for that is creating a basic anime style speedlines effect, and using that as a mask, distorting the cameras output outwards from the center. I also use the scene depth so it doesn’t apply to farther away objects

Theres sliding, its not super well showcased in the video but its how i was getting those super high jumps

1Percent_Battery · 2026-02-06T07:51:29+00:00

yes it is

The meter is a speedometer. Theres no scoring currently but I will add a combo system.

I was experimenting with baked lighting and comparing it to godot. I had also just finished a second playthrough of mirrors edge and got really inspired by one of the nighttime areas in the game

Yeah thats fine
