This was my suggestion for the poll. This colour is bane of my existence because every time there’s someone saying the other

Okay so basically when to use movieclips for memory usage:
– If you have repeating motion, ie. Character walking
– If the objects don’t have any changes across multiple frames, ie. Backgrounds consisting of bunch of stickfigure/sprite props.
– You can recycle a part of the animation, ie. effects such as manually created explosions.

You can also go a step further in some cases and utilise delay frame to cut down on some factors. Since the app won’t have to remember the properties of the movieclips then, such as position, scale etc.

If you’re putting just straight up one-off character animations, it would actually lead to slightly bigger memory usage. Although it’s not too bad, if it would help you organise/compose your project better.

Extend the forearm a bit, make the red bit significantly shorter with some splashes coming out of it, perhaps add a bit of blood on the bone too?

Imagine pulling up to the date in this

lmao’d, he indeed is adorable.

prob start of with adding some wear and tear with gradients, and also his entire body to head ratio makes him look like incredibly small guy.

I feel like it’s actually more underlying problems than just “that’s just how it is” lmao

I’ve spent multiple years on planning out my series, and when I finally go about doing it, I hyperfixiate on small problem until it’s “fixed”, which then leads me back to rewriting the very first scene.

Although the problem likely is just me, and I’d solve it if I just kept on going in the story for the first draft.

Gonna share a bit of vulnerability here, but ifkr.

I’m in the loop of kicking myself down, obsessing over tiniest of details, not being able to meet my “perfect expectations”, scrapping the project, then kicking myself further.

It’s progressed to a point where actually starting to do something is a whole ass war, that I give up the moment I boot up pc/open Stick Nodes, because of inate fear of failing.

Shit’s wack.

Better: get a parrot. Have it mimic creeper sound. Go to friend’s house and make a hidden room underneath. Leave the hissing parrot there.
