I’m working out some animations for the “No Escape!” video. Some of the animations are simple two frame flips and others are more elaborate.

The character in the clip above is one of the two leads in the video. He is a frog. Well … a humanoid frog. It was hard to find the right balance of “eye bulge” vs. “alien head” while being limited to 20×20 pixels.

Yes … I know that legs don’t really do that … but let’s remember that this is a work of old school vid’ fiction!

This particular walk cycle swings around fives frames.
