Future Avatar Feature
Added 2023-05-17 18:53:25 +0000 UTCBeen planning an update to the avatar types over the last couple of months, and it's finally starting to shape up to the point where I'm ready to share it.
So I'm happy to finally share with you all a look at the game's first animated avatar!
Animated avatars will feature all 6 avatar poses animated, including transition animations between them. The plan is to release them as a new type of alt. version for existing avatars (most likely as a legendary alt. versions) featuring their standard design.
There's still some work before the animated Valkyrie Miyu can make her appearance in-game, but I hope to have her ready doing June or July, and then release a new animated avatar every 1–2 months going forward =)
That's all for this time, was blown away by the animation the first time I saw the finished version, so it's great finally being able to share it with you all!

Won't rule out making animated versions of alt skins at some point. But to keep it simple at the start while I get the process for their creation and integration in the game, I'll focus on the base versions. As it's hard to say which alt versions are popular enough to warrant their own animated version, as the base design might have a broader reach

2023-05-19 18:23:09 +0000 UTCShould consider doing them for the 200 alt skins though, they are likely the most popular skins? Or do a poll to decide? Surely most would rather have animated alts vs base skins?

2023-05-18 11:06:23 +0000 UTCSo would it only be for the legendary skins? Or could we (eventually) expect it on regular Avis as well? And I see you say “standard design” in your post. Does that mean it would only be the base and none of the colors/alts/whatever we are calling them?
