I just uploaded a quick preview of the animation editor in action. Forgive the lack of annotations; I'll try to get around to them eventually. In the meantime, most of what's going on should be fairly self-explanatory to anyone who's used a keyframe editor before.

Yarns: LÖVE Stories
Re: Yarns: LÖVE Stories
That looks really cool! I sometimes do stuff like that in Flash and it can be a real pain.

Re: Yarns: LÖVE Stories
Hmm, I wonder... Does this really count as machinima? I mean, it's a video-maker through and through... Can it get the title "machinima" if there's no actual gameplay in that "game"?
Not to try to spoil your fun. This reminds me of TISFAT... The keyframes have animation interpolation ("tweening"), right?

I always do that. Thanks for pointing that out. I'll fix it by the first release.middlerun wrote:FYI, tricep doesn't mean forearm, the tricep muscle is at the back of the upper arm, behind the bicep.
Technically speaking, the fact that it's 2D excludes it from the traditional definition. By calling it "2D Machinima," however, I remove it from that particular restriction.Taehl wrote:Hmm, I wonder... Does this really count as machinima? I mean, it's a video-maker through and through...

From there, my call would be that Yarns is as much a "machinima editor" as LÖVE is a "game engine" which, I realize, is not technically the case.
However, everything about the execution of the "movies" is video-game specific from the use of pixel sprites to the tile engine used for backgrounds, so I'd say that I have at least a decent case.
If not, oh well! It still serves the same purpose regardless of the label.
