🪲How to make "Death" animation if the player walks through the top plank and it breaks?

This is not a tutorial, I'm asking a question lol.

I can think of a few ways to do it:

A) Just play a video where the video starts exactly where the character and background are.

B) Have an image of the bottom 2 planks as parallax? Then slide the character down... wait it could work? Or not?

I'm still curious about the optimal and common way of doing it. I'll have to ask Reddit

🪲Another Background - 6 hours...

A lot of testing brushes cause I can't be drawing individual leaves, it takes forever TwT I think Leaves B looks fine for now, since this my first game I won't spent too much time trying to perfect it.

I also don't know how to draw water lol.

🪲This month's Game Development plan

Finally the holidays! This time I had made a schedule, it's the first time setting a schedule as long as for a month so I hope am sure I am overestimating myself to be able to do so much.

Will update how much I failed this schedule in a month's time lol

🪲Background for 'Home Base'

🪲Character sprite for my RPG Maker game

Kinda like how the fur looks. Not draw in a detailed art style to prevent myself from never completing this project lol

[eifiedm]

🪲Progress of game design #6

Gonna draw the sprites nowww

[eifiedm]

🪲Progress of game design #5

The image is getting grainer and grainer cause of how much I have to zoom out now.

I was a bit worried about the limitations of RPG Maker MV but I found out how to use scripts and combine the game variables into it so for now I don't have much worried about the coding part.

🪲Help me choose a colour pallet for the protag

🪲Exterior for 'Home Base'

This took like 3 hours and the current real map of an area I'm making now is taking 6 hours and I'm only halfway done with it. Drawing backgrounds is taking longer than I expected...

[eifiedm]

🪲Progress of game design #8

Had to smaller the cope of my development plan cause dang I draw so slowly...

But I'm up to date with the new development timeline for the holidays. I'm almost done with the main characters' visual novel sprites.

🪲I'd like to say I completed another base sprite variation but...

The proportions compared to the other variations seem off... I'll have to overlay it and fix it trm.

🪲Mule's rein and saddle...?

I'm not sure how accurate these are... I tried my best to reference online images.

Edit: Also here are the colour variations I tried.
