[WIP] Game Title screen + [Finished] Iso Run Animation

[Turbo]

Run animation for a class project:

WIP Title screen:

[Icedemon]

the sprite to animate looks good, are you going to do anything to his hair when running?

[Xion]

It's...very...sloooowww...

[Cow]

His left arm swinging seems pretty extreme. Looks nice otherwise, like the hip movements.

It's...very...sloooowww...

Fine on my computer.

[kakikukeko]

I'm not animator, but it looks fine to me.. yeah I like the hip movement too..
and it's a bit slow on my computer too..
the drawing is pretty nice, but you have more contrast on the trousers/shoes than on the rest of the sprite.. I think you better attract the spectator's eye on the head and the sweater...
good luck

[mangust]

Yes maybe it's some slow... This animation more approach to big man (fat, heavy man), but me like this - it's not ordinary and very funny (maybe head some lower down, like a bull  )
Anyway if you will animated faster maybe you use 6 frames (it's enough), for walk (8 frames).

Thanks for the help and encouragement! Here's a version to address the issues mentioned:



Changed the palette for more contrast.
Added a highlight for the sweater.
Speeded up the run.

Icedemon: Nice tip on animating the hair, hadn't planned it but sure will.
Xion: better now?
mccow28: yeah, the left arm needs rework. It was basically rushed, because it's mostly hidden behind the body and i didn't want to add too much detail before i flesh him out.
kakikukeko: Hope i didn't go overboard with contrast and focal points now...
mangust: the change in animation speed corrected the look of heaviness, i hope? I don't think i need to cut down frames, although i could... If such, i'd rather correct the ones i have. (The game engine allows for a customized animation speed, as it should )

[Hishnak]

His right leg seems to speed up rather quickly as he pushes off with it. Do you know what I mean?

[Xion]

Yeah, looks cooler now, but like Hishnak said, the right leg is way fast...in fact, it was like that before, but the speed change just makes it more obvious. I realy like the arm motion, though. Nice.

[Turbo]

I see it now, thanks for the pointer. I'll fix it in the next iteration.
