WHEEEEEEEEEEZEEEE

Experimented quickly with ready platformer template and @aghostsnail's gif Kudos to people making games, it will take several days just to regulate walking and jumping ahah

As requested I posted the frames I used for the jumping animation :)

They're free to use for reference fyi

Also the last frame is the really squished (almost flat) frame on the ground except on the top. I couldn't put it since I can only put ten screen shots.

Also apparently it wasn't nine frames it was 11 😅

Brenthia Moths: these moths can mimic the appearance and mannerisms of a jumping spider so convincingly that actual jumping spiders will sometimes attempt to court them

The markings, posture, and movements of a Brenthia moth (genus Brenthia, also known as a metalmark moth) all contribute to its disguise; the moths move around in short, jerky motions that mimic the movements of a jumping spider, and their hindwings are covered in black-and-white bands that strongly resemble the tucked-in legs of a salticiid spider, especially when the moth displays its unique wing position. The disguise serves as a defensive strategy, enabling the moth to avoid being preyed upon by actual jumping spiders.

In some cases, that disguise may work a little too well, as jumping spiders may actually mistake the moth for a potential mate and then attempt to engage it in a courtship/mating dance (which must be a pretty awkward and bizarre experience for the moth, tbh).

The resemblance between a Brenthia moth and a jumping spider may not seem terribly convincing to us, as human beings, but as this article explains:

When discussing animals mimicking their predator, it is important to remember that we humans are not the target audience. This means that the imitator may not look too convincing in its mimicry to us, but still manages to trigger a desired response from said predator.

Jumping spiders have also been known to respond to Brenthia moths by exhibiting a territorial display, which is yet another behavior that the spiders generally reserve for other spiders.

This study expands on the adaptive benefits of the moth's disguise:

In controlled trials, Brenthia had higher survival rates than other similarly sized moths in the presence of jumping spiders and jumping spiders responded to Brenthia with territorial displays, indicating that Brenthia were sometimes mistaken for jumping spiders, and not recognized as prey.

The illustration below shows the basic/general resemblance between a Brenthia moth and a jumping spider:

horses watching television in a carpeted room they are small and wear matching blue halters as they stand close together side by side incredibly close to the television which displays a horse and rider jumping over an obstacle typical of horse shows this pair is watching sports as friends practically glued to the screen they are obviously fanatics of a sport in which their taller brethren show off their strengths and discipline perhaps some part of them yearns to leap and bound with the big shots
