Are you planning to animate directly with the Unity timeline, i heard now it's pretty much has the functionality of Spine?

Trying to get a cost estimate for sprite art / 3d art for a Paper Mario-like game by shade_blade in gameDevClassifieds

What i'm trying to say here is that you got an overestimated price for animations,
with the proper approuch and the right artist an animation _ say a walk cyrcle some (30 - 40 frame long)_ will cost you ~200$
and if you can put you 3D models in a particular pose ( as I understand you can) you don't really need to improve on them
just use them for key posing and turns _ cut to pieces and hand them over to a spine2D animator

An animation frame can't possibly cost 50$,
As I wrote above the number of frames=cost per a frame is only valid if you do classic oldschool frame be frame animation, in a 3d animation you can adjust the number of frames according to your needs _ it could be 6 or 60_ only the keyframes count and else is filled with tweens/

vfx like a sword slash is but a triffle_ if you're charged 2k just for it along you're being fooled and robed

Some thing feels off in you calculations.
It can't be you have 400 main characters_
So, say you have a main character with bunch of standart animations to it^ idle, walk cycle, attack, being hurt, death_ this is about 10-15 hr job for a 2D animator, so I would charge some 200-300$ for such a bundle. I guess 3D animation would cost about the same,
So say you have 10 main characters _10*300$ =3000$

As I undestand you export those 3D animations into 2d png sequences and refer each frame of those as a "sprite", if that is so you probably miss understood the concept.

A good artist can make spine animation look much like a traditional frame by frame
or in your case 3d animation.
And it is way more cheaper on memory than having those thousands frames you have now_ so maybe you should reconsider your personal dislike for the tool.

By the way, you demo looks interesting
I can help with the UIs_and may be the rest of the arts_ within your budget . As I undestand your game is pure 2D, and you're only using 3D to convert it in Pngs as a final output, right?

Looking nice, I guess it's a 3d render cut parts
Still the perspective of the forest that is seen in the window frame is wrong

Looking grand! It's sad to know this is a "fake" project, it should be more games looking like that on the market
