Question

I want to do an explosion animation with three different bitmaps representing different stages of the explosion I already have the bitmaps loaded, I tried using a for loop but the images get by too fast to see. I have this all in my surfaceview class, is there a way to properly carry out this function this sort of explosion image switching, or any pointers without the images flashing by so fast?

It looks like you’re interested in Drawable animation.
