Progress Video 6 - Attack and Jump Animations, the animation changes based on an array, so instead of having to learn a series of complex combos the player needs to learn wich animation will come next

on first person during raven form you can fly within a word boundary collision wich is at end overlap it "kills" the player, wich resets its health and teleports to the current selected ring

on secound person you rotate the rings and the plane with the sprite material is seen rotating

on third person as korax you see the purple mist now act more like a body of water and the same regtangle collision's box extent is flatened to teleport the player on begin overlap should they fall of one of the rings
