PICO-8: Simple Item Animation

Simple Item Animation

This cart demonstrates simple item animation. It is heavily commented so you can pull apart how this is being achieved.

Notes: The basic idea is to have a few specific pieces of information tracked with each item:

• A list of sprites in the order they should be played in the animation.
• A tick which keeps track of how many _update() ticks have gone by since the last time the animation changed.
• An anim_speed that tracks how many _update() ticks should happen before the animation moves to the next frame.
• The current frame for the animation.
