[Level Up & Battle Animations]

Dang Rory. Everything looks fantastic. Keep up the good work.

 

I personally think the level up animation would look fine the way you had it designed in photoshop (as far as the order of the frames go), with the shuriken appearing above the head as the final frames of the animation.

This looks really professional. Nice work. I look forward to playing the next alpha release (never played before).
