Amethyst and Garnet Animation Test
Added 2021-01-12 05:47:55 +0000 UTCLet me start with: I wish I could share these on social media. They are GREAT! Or maybe I'm patting myself too hard in the back. That's why I ask you guys, what do you think?
First off, the quality of those gifs is terrible, but Patreon doesn't allow us to upload videos straight to the page for one reason or the other, so let's discuss each one individually, starting with Garnet.

As you can see, Garnet is simply its old assets for the first scene but automatically animated, no need to click for the animation to happen, plus some extra stuff. Truth is, this animation is choppy since this wasn't done thinking about a clear animation, it's a simple 2 frames animation, and I wouldn't exactly call it animation because of that. We want to add extra frames in the future, either in this very release or the next one, so it is smoother and better. Speaking of which.

Yup, this is something we are very proud of, and this isn't even our best animation yet. As the video shows, it's individual frames animated using ren'py's ATL code. This scene was thought of as an animation, which is why it's far less choppy compared to Garnet's scene.
I hope you guys enjoyed these previews. For those White Caste patrons, I sincerely appreciate your effort and I hope this small and exclusive sneak-a-peak is satisfying enough. I insist I want to show off these videos, but you guys deserve the exclusivity.
