[animation] I made a movie length sprite based animaton

[GrooveMan.exe]

I watched patiently up until the first textbox appeared.

And then I couldn't really watch it anymore. It was jittery, ill-fitting, and not in any way conducive to actual animation. I was expecting lip movement, or voicing, or the sprites in the background to emote when speaking, but none of that happens; and it makes it unbearable to watch. I definitely couldn't put up with that for an hour and a half.

There's nothing really wrong with using pixelart as an animation medium, but you have to think like an animator. The textbox-based cutscenes of 16-Bit RPGs is not how you tell a story outside of a video game.

Edit: So I skarted skipping around in the video looking at different parts. It doesn't get any better. All your sprite animations are fucking terrible. You have not mastered sprite animation. No way.
