I hope we can make it a timed paywall. Not a huge fan either, but we gotta eat.
If I carve out the time I'd love to make a video about the theory (no code snippets) and make that free.

Actually most of the complaints were about the frame rate. Performance optimization is hard 😅

I'm so glad you liked it :3
Thanks for spreading the word!

Maybe we should've figured out how to organise the AnimationTree better. This is how the final arrangement looks like (Some of these animation nodes go deeper haha)

This game could suddenly drop in 15 years and I'd still play it day one full of excitement :D

The support would always be appreciated!
Right now you would get access to the full source code. You'd need to dissect and investigate yourself how the pipeline works tho. Soon we'll have documentation and guides online.

Since all our animations are on 2s I wait for a signal that a new animation started. This resets a value that's counting delta time. If I take the modulo by the frame time I can check on which frames it syncs up with the animation.
But I can also see other ways of doing it.

Oh for a full explanation in the article I'll make more videos to compare the result to how it would look when just linearly interpolated 👍

Luckily no. The actual movementis still at 60 FPS and every input still triggers an immediate feedback and state changes. That's the most important thing.

This kind of approach to 3D animation in games is very inspired by how 2D animated sprites in games move at a low fps, while still feeling responsive and smooth.
