Some of the animations and Canvas are now working on the page. Axe (or the hero character if you prefer) moves around but his animations are a little wonky. He doesn't face the right direction as he moves up and down. As it turns out iio Engine, the 2d rendering engine we picked out, isn't as well documented as it first appeared. That means there isn't a an ample amount of information for Mike and Jason to trouble shoot how the library works without plunking around for a bit. It's open source and it's free so I can't complain but we might need to switch things up later on. The getSprite function in the iio lib looks like this:
For now there is no background. There are assets we can use but I would rather just focus on getting the character movement right.
