Handsome Meadow Katydid

It can jump, hold the key to power up, then release at the desired power level. Just like those games with the increasing power meter, however after reaching 100% power, it auto-jumps.

Progress

The jumping mechanic is done, the realistic antennae movement is also. It waves them around, and in flight they bend back the more the airspeed gets.

Next steps >

First i will add a walking mechanic, like my other insects. The walking gets disabled when pressing the jump button.

Second i will add flight, making it an ornithopter

Last i will make the legs fold in in flight, maybe also adding abdomen movement to simulate breathing.
