## Animations

![narrat animations](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/narrat/original/1X/36d47cee47c3f173aa8f27023dc51471506d1762.gif)

There is a new [animations](https://docs.narrat.dev/features/animations.html) feature which lets you animate pretty much anything.

## Narrat Editor

The first step to a future narrat editor is here, there is now an [interactive narrat playground](https://demo.narrat.dev/) where you can play and edit a game at the same time directly in the browser.

 ![8d4895736d60a019](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/narrat/original/1X/3ada370a828c7d4eacc5cae7c6cd4b4933c2208f.png)

This required a few changes to make it easier to integrate narrat within the tool, which would make it easier if anyone wants to make advanced plugins/integrations, or run narrat directly inside other websites.

This base proof of concept will be expanded on in the future to try to move towards having a proper desktop editor for creating/managing/editing/publishing narrat games

### Breaking Changes

Not a breaking change, but as part of working on the [narrat editor](https://demo.narrat.dev), narrat now can be inside custom containers in the page and doesn’t necessarily listen to inputs on the `window` object.

This doesn’t seem to break anything in my testing so far

### Features

- New options to [style portraits of individual characters](https://docs.narrat.dev/features/characters-and-portraits.html#character-portrait-styling)
- New options to [control when the dialog panel appears](https://docs.narrat.dev/features/dialog-panel.html#controlling-when-the-dialog-panel-appears)

### Documentation

- New [Dialog Panel](https://docs.narrat.dev/features/dialog-panel.html) page
- New [Animations](https://docs.narrat.dev/features/animations.html) page
- Improved [Inventory](https://docs.narrat.dev/features/inventory.html) docs
- Added [Narrat Overview](https://docs.narrat.dev/guides/narrat-overview.html) page with explanations of elements in a narrat game
