Yep, that's exactly it. And then the animations are just a function of the current x and y compared against the last x and y
Position recording actually. Every half a second it stores the game time, the position, and the screen you're on, which it later uses to manipulate the ghost around. It's not perfect, but it gets the job done
Race your friends!
I've polished off the ghost system for The Grappler, available now in the demo. To help, I've done up a tutorial video.

Ghost Animations Working 👍
It's been difficult balancing work, game dev, and social media, so it feels nice to knock this feature out
