low res run cycle

[JaJitsu]

I know the cave story style is getting old but i really like this one

Hum. I'm not the best person to offer animation critique but as far as I can notice, during the stop animation the character should trying to counter the inertia of the running movement by throwing some of his weight to the opposite direction (leaning a bit back for instance). Currently, it looks like he's getting electrocuted or something like that.

I'm sorry I can't pinpoint it more precisely, as I'm not a very well trained animator. Let's hope it makes sense to you.

I'm no good with animation either, but I realize some other problem.

The character's body sort of blend into the background, so I would reconsider the color/darkness if I were you. Don't get me wrong though, the character looks great

I would add an outline to it.

Adding an outline would just ruin the style he's going for here.
