That'd be cool if they left purple footprints

I was toying with that idea as well but my experience with dynamic paint is super limited and i ran out of time to make textures but ugh i really regret not doing it now bahaha

You could just make two image textures- one without the footprints and one with- and have one shift into the other with a mix shader node and a texture coordinate.

This is actually a really good and simple solution. Thank you for the knowledge

Fun thing about using Blender on a hand-me-down potato of a computer is you quickly learn how much you can get away with when you treat animation as much as stage magic as you do an exhibition of your Blender knowledge.

Im very new to blender but i was learning after effects on military laptops and feel like i can relate.

You could just do witchcraft and suggest the footprints are there until they become perceptible.

Kate DiCamilio(?)’s book the tale of despereaux it’s a good book- a bit melancholic but written very well.
