Cat Animation 101 - part 5


Colour Changing Cats

In Zoltan we have cats of different colours, all using the same animations. That’s why I filled my outlines with grey. The final colour is set inside Unity.pescagatti.gif

I generally select the outline and fill the shape on a different layer I leave underneath. To put all together In the final spritesheet, first I tried out the animation in Photoshop (I hate the Photoshop timeline, but it’s all I have), then I created the spritesheet with GlueIt and imported in into Unity.

Many animations are made of two spritesheets one on top of the other (for instance the crazy typing cat, that changes colour while the laptop stays silver or the evil and good cats that need to have overlayed features)

This was a bit of extra work for us, but we liked the idea that if you picked an orange cat you will play all the games with an orange cat! :)
