Top Down Run Cycle (Patreon)

This is one of many ways of making a top down run cycle. I chose this specific way because it's usually how I work and because it's the simplest way I could think of.

I usually focus on the 3 jump frames and 2 recover frames thing and then I try to connect everything by making secondary animations, like hair movement, clothes, etc.

If you need to, it's also possible to just make one jump and one recover for a super minimal animation, but it won't look very fluid.

Honestly I'm not very happy with my side view, I might study how to make that better in the future.

Thanks a lot for the support :D
