Animations

It'd be nice to have animations for different states and moods. For example, a slightly staggery walk cycle for when you've have a drink of beer or hooch and are 'smashed'. Or a grouchy, slouchy walk animation for when your mood is low. Or perhaps a certain, fixed expression for states and moods too?

At the moment the animations are pretty much the same unless you're in special instances (I noted the nice angry animation when I was touched by a block in the 'smash a rooks egg' event). If my Glitch is smashed but there is no change in animation, it takes away the illusion and potential humour in it.

  • The problem is the sprite sheets. There was a whole blog post on the glitch page about how that is one of their huge problems...I'll try to dig up the articles.

  • You can do the "emotions" yourself.
    Press 1 for Surprise.
    Press 2 for Anger.
    Press 3 for Laughter.
    Press 4 for AFK/Sleep.

  • Aye, but I meant ones that are a direct result of states (such as the 'smashed' example I gave), but Gabi has pretty much answered why they aren't there :)
