Add walking and jumping effect to characters

[Aseged]

Adde jumping and walking effect on this character.
Hint: it is necessary to use photoshop to create a copy of the same character but in different positions, much like sprite sheet but different png files. @EdwardDunn

@Aseged Sounds good!

Hi @Aseged , how are you coming along with this? If you're no longer working on the character animations then I would take this issue. There are free spritesheets for all kinds of actions for these characters on https://www.gameart2d.com, and they would finally be walking and jumping instead of sliding!

[EdwardDunn]

@Scruffy21 Go ahead, I don't think @Aseged is working on this anymore.

[Aseged]

Apologies @EdwardDunn @Scruffy21 I have been really busy with other projects and will be for another 3 weeks. Go ahead with the issue.

[Scruffy21]

Okay then. Thanks. I should do this sometime this week.

[Scruffy21]

I didn't get to doing it yet, but I should do it in some time though, I promise.

[EdwardDunn]

@Scruffy21 No worries, take your time.

I noticed that the current images for the characters all have different dimensions, and so they are squished to the same size and that causes them to be sorta blurred. The aspect ratio for the character images is currently 70/60 = 1.16, while the boy img has 486/309 = 1.57, girl 491/344 = 1.42 Any idea how to resolve this? Or do we just ignore them and let them be distorted for the time being?

@Scruffy21 The only solution I can think of is to use an image editor like Photoshop to make them all consistent, an alternative would be the Gimp software that is free but a bit unintuitive to use.

[Scruffy21]

I see. I'm not so good with image editing software, and there'd be something like 338 = 72 images to edit. So probably some bulk editing needed. I think I'll just let them a bit misshapen and see how it looks, and when someone comes around with good photoshop skills they could fix it to look better.

[EdwardDunn]

@Scruffy21 It could be done programmatically but probably cleaner to use correctly scaled images. Thanks for your input!

[Scruffy21]

I'll let someone better at Photoshop deal with this issue then. Doing it programmatically would be a real pain, I think.
