Devlog #2 - Implementing actors to the game
Hi!
Since I'm getting a lot of questions about this,  I decided to show you how I've implemented actors into the game.
I recorded the videos on greenscreen, rendered them into image sequences, resized  them and cut characters out from photos frame by frame.
Before:

After (before clearing out the greenscreen remains and using a red outline):

Each enemy has its own 4 animations - walking, getting shot, attacking and dying.

To keep the illusion of the video being played on engine, I never skipped a frame from the original video. This in turn left me with A LOT of sprites and time spent in photo editing software, because GDevelop doesn't support multiple video clips on a scene. For example, basic enemy (such as The Masked Mutant) is made out of 237 frames in total.
Have a good one!
