Hi everyone!
We've just pushed a small update that adds an accessibility option to control whether or not the stop-motion animation effect is enabled or not.
We actually started work last year after receiving feedback about it from some of our Early Access players. As strange as it might sound, it was something that took a fair bit of effort to get working correctly, as there are nuances to it which aren't immediately apparent.
It's something we planned to spend more time testing, but with the influx of new players, the topic was raised again, so we're opening the option now in case you're one of the people who feel affected by this effect. So please let us know if you encounter any strange animation issues with this new option, so we can address them ASAP.
Just as a stylistic note, we do want to stress that the animations were authored with a stop-motion effect in-mind, and so the weighting of many anims can feel rather floaty or odd when they have smooth interpolation. However, if it's more comfortable to you, that's all that matters!
We also wanted to say thank you and welcome to all of the new players! We grew such a lovely community during out Early Access period, and we're really excited to see it grow! We'll be back with more updates and fixes quicker than you can say "Bubba bubba!"
Thanks so much!
