Animated menuImage Option

setMenuImage() (ref: Inside Playdate with C) is great!

but it would be cool if we could provide an array of images, to have animated pause screens, similar to launchImages.

I suppose one could do the timing and repeatedly call setMenuImage(..) to animate, but I don't know how robust it would be, given it wasn't designed for that (afaict).

What would that look like? As in, how would you use it?

Sonic wagging their finger?

A blinking hourglass to indicate time is running out?

Haha, literally that was the example my brother and I thought of (the sonic one), so yes!

That would be great, yes!
My use case is to be able to animate text that doesn't always fit into the half screen area.
