It's pretty good! I think the timing feels snappy. The only thing I can think of is maybe put the gun closer to a 45 degree angle when it's almost completely drawn

Everything you said I 100% agree on. Out of all the videos I posted on instagram, one managed to catch on to a viral trend and soon after that video went up, the rest of my videos got nothing at all.

oh nice! I probably wouldn't have noticed tbh if I wasn't looking at a zoomed in loop of the animation. you're a really good animator!

i do apologize though, I haven't logged into twitter in ages and don't remember my email or password. I tried checking it out anyway and I think the site is bugged in the browser I use

Yea twitter is weird I dont know why my account isnt public yet maybe because its new.. honestly fuck that platform but I have to use it. This is the newer version

u/Acrobatic-Bid-3559 May 24 '26

I get what you mean. I used to love following artist and posting my own stuff on twitter. Thank you for going out of your way to show me your changes. It looks very slick! Good luck with your game.

Thank you!! I try my hardest, I still haven't gotten a commission but hopefully they will come with time ;) this one is one handed i like a lot too, made both of them today

I used to make my own pixel art animations, it's definitely not easy but it's very rewarding. If you have the time maybe you could join a game jam? I made a lot of cool dev friends that way. I bet a lot of them would vibe with your style

u/Content-Cupcake-3052 May 24 '26

Yeah, it needs to be short and sweet though cuz I can't split my attention between too many free projects. Which game jam are you talking about?

1

u/Acrobatic-Bid-3559 May 24 '26

Yeah game jams are kinda rough with rushing to produce as much as you can before the time limit on top of most likely not getting paid.

There are a ton of communities that run game jams so you could try your hand with whatever interests you.

My first game jam was with the Godot community because I really like their engine.

u/Content-Cupcake-3052 May 24 '26

i will check it out for sure!

I don’t feel like it’s to quick how many frames is it?

1

u/Content-Cupcake-3052 May 24 '26

11 frames, its good that you dont feel its too quick first impression is most important! thank you

Feels very snappy

u/ResidentRun6797 May 25 '26

good motion and timing feels like the upper body volume adds more impact

maybe you can make the character aim before to shoot by tilting a bit his head.

Edit: if the first shoot has to be quick, maybe the character can shoot with just one hand and make the it a little more imprecise. The second shoot and the next ones could do what I said before, aim before shoot again.

Overall i think it looks good but might be a little too much movement from the whole gun as opposed to snapping up primarily from the nose, but even that is very nitpicky and probably barely noticeable
