Just wanted to get clarification on the playback rate of launchImages as defined in Inside Playdate
I believe the launch animations play at 20 fps. You can make them play slower by duplicating frames in an animation.txt file, but I don't think you can make it any faster than 20 fps.
That seems about right, at least to my eyes
Could someone on the dev team confirm (cc: @dave ) and possibly add it to the docs?
I'm not on the dev team, but I can confirm 20fps.
Will add staff for the documentation change.
Yup, they run at 20 fps. Edit: I've also updated the documentation to make note of it running at 20 fps.

Does launchImages support animation.txt? There's no mention of it in the documentation and adding one to my project does not seem to slow my animation down (whereas it does work as expected for card-highlighted).
No it doesn't. You need to duplicate frames as files.
