Adorable Mochi Pets

0.3.2 — Animation overhaul

Every animation was linear. That was the root cause of combat and movement looking "flat" — the wind-up, the impact and the recovery all played at the same speed. Every clip has been re-timed with proper easing (454 keyframes across 30 clips).

Combat

• Attack rhythm: wind up → hang → explode → recoil. All three attack variants (bite / swipe / slam) now read as real hits. The slam bounces on landing; ears and tail whip with delayed follow-through.
• Impact particles were firing 4–6 ticks BEFORE the visible hit. They now burst exactly on the strike frame. Damage and knockback stay instant.
• Hurt snaps in a single frame and wobbles out, instead of easing over gently.

Movement

• Legs are now two-jointed. Paws used to pivot inside themselves — they spun in place like windshield wipers. New hip joints give a real step arc: 3× the stride length at the same angle.
• No more foot sliding. The walk/run cycle now locks to actual ground speed instead of playing at a fixed rate.
• Run is a real bound — front contact → push → rear contact → leap, with all four paws airborne. It used to be a symmetric shuffle with no suspension.
• Paws stay planted through the whole stance (the rig has no knee; the hip compensates).
• New neck joint: the head bone was fully owned by look-tracking, so the head couldn't react to the body. Mochi now keeps its head level while running — the way real animals do.

Menu

• The Unequip button was sitting on top of the "Backpack (x/9)" label. Moved beside the grid.
• The armor label didn't fit its button and got clipped on both sides. Armor tier and cost are now their own lines above a short button.
• Section labels are properly centered in all 8 languages (they were hand-positioned for English and overflowed elsewhere).

Other

• Removed 120 unused armor textures — the jar is 16% smaller (563 → 474 KB).
• Fixed the nose freezing for the last fraction of the eating loop.
