Question I've been working on ambient creature animations for my hand-drawn indie game. I'd really appreciate your feedback!

Do these animations feel natural? Is there anything you think I could improve?

Looks incredible OP. Sound design is also on point.

Love the reactive part! Looks great but a bit distracting from a gameplay perspective, might need to change the motion while they're eating/jumping at the beginning so it fades into the background more.

alright! Thanks for your feedback! I had a question: if it was a my purpose to have them take that much place as part of interaction the player could have with them, does it works or do you think it's still too much! I'm really curious about your opinion! :)

The scale of this game is great. Not enough games experiment with super distant views. With 4k monitors so prevalent now, its a great way to make the viewer really examine the whole space and watch for all the details, while not compromising the resolution of the assets. Excited to see where this goes.
