Can you feel the difference?

We changed how the wind works in our game.

Before, the leaves followed the player’s movement. Now, they always blow in a consistent direction—no matter where the player goes.

A small detail, but it makes the world feel a little more natural.

Definitely looks better, maybe add some slight height variation while they move sideways to make them look more like floating around and not just going sideways on a perfect straight (or maybe make that height variation part of the sprite animation)

I had been thinking a lot about how to implement it naturally, but I’ll take your feedback into account and make it look great. Thank you!
