In this updated edition, I added the screw bot animations, the vent animations, the screw bot walk, and the drop animations. As for the style and direction of the steam grate or vent, I wanted to mimic those found either in the floor of a factory or on the street outside. I chose a stylistic gray color with low opacity, and then in the next frames, I drew the steam moving up in an airy, like movement. Currently, the vent does disappear and is not always there unless the player is within range, so that will be the next fix regarding that. As for the screw bots drop animation, it serves as a visual representation of the enemy being jumped on, so I wanted to make the robot look like it was trying to get free, or it was struggling while being screwed into the player by their jump. Lastly, the screwbots walking animation is a stylized lean that makes it look like it's gliding across the ground to its new target, relating more towards how the tip of a screw is sharp like a spinning top
