Sunday Animation Poll (Patreon)
Content
Hello! Today's poll is about the new animation type that was introduced in the latest special: Phone video.
While doing some experimenting with the animations I found that 30 frames of looped animation does work pretty well in the game(it's locked at 60 fps). In the Christmas special I tried to go with 15, but the difference between 15 and 30 frames is noticeable.
So why not make every animation in 30 fps?
The problem is - with big fullscreen animation like the Christmas one - 30 frames is a lot of work. And a couple of those would inflate the size of the game substantially too. So in that regard, if the animation is limited to the phone screen, it takes less space and less effort to make.
And that's what this poll is about:
Let's say there's a "Video" button added to the phone menu, and you're able to unlock and view various animated videos there. But these videos make up for most of animated events in the game.
Is it a worthwhile trade? Or should I keep the phone videos as a small gimmick and focus on the full-screen animations instead?
P.S. there's no "middle ground" option in this poll because eventually there will be animations of both types added into the game, most likely. Hovewer I do need to know which type to prioritize.
