The models and animations are amazing, especially tiny details like the ears and facial expressions. I can tell the framework is there for a great game, just needs more content. Mod support / character sharing system would speed this up.
If you want to go a step further, you could automate character sharing with a simple API. When saving their character, the user could opt to share them. If they do, the character data would get sent to the API and stored. When another player loads a map, a collection of shared characters can be fetched from the API and loaded in game.
In any case, great work! I look forward to future updates
P.S. Please keep the exaggerated movements, I think it's cute!
