This is Spine 2D (Where the Fox Got His Axe)

this is spine 2D. this is where the fox got his axe-swinging
animation. and the cat with the scythe. and every other enemy
in my card game.

THE PROCESS:
🦴 rig — bones inside bones (40-60 per character)
🎨 weights — every pixel assigned to a bone (manually)
🎬 animate — keyframe poses, software interpolates
🔁 5+ animations per character (idle, attack, hit, death, taunt)

THE SMART TRICK:
the fox and the cat share the same skeleton. one rig. two
characters. i swap which art is visible at the slot level.
saved me weeks. past me figured this out at 3am. past me was
a genius. present me is tired.

spine 2D doesn't have AI generation. there's no "animate this"
button. every bone, every weight, every keyframe is manual.
