It's not the LC graphics it's the "jagged" and "uncomplete" scripting.
LC can do much more.

Some basic examples related to the starting animation:
= You use "wait <time>" for animations (!!!) and moreover
  +++ with <time> far below the refreshrate of the app. 
  +++ with <time> independent of the device.
= You animate along a random (jagged) line of points ignoring the
  existence of smooth curves.
= You use an image that doesn't even have an antialiased border.

You need help to use huge non-free JS frameworks?

Compare that in *real* costs to LiveCode. LiveCode is not a presentation app
(like PowerPoint or its daughter Keynote or some Adobe products).
It's not an image processing app (like Photoshop or Gimp or GraphicConverter).
It's not a vector graphics app (like Inkscape or some Adobe products).
And it's not a "robust" WebApp framework (robust against package-coded HTML5)*.
But you can have special parts of that built on LiveCode:
Simply buy extensions for your specialised uses, hire freelancers.

(To avoid any misunderstanding, I'm not a freelancer but I know some. Probably
I don't know as many as you know).

* Also, some of LC's HTML5 deployment modules could do a lot of that.
It needs supporters by buying HTML5-licenses, do you have one?
