So I'm not using any character sheets yet (though I really wanna make some so I have the option to bring in other artists) but I use the spites I've made to stay on-model so I wanted to post them!
I needed a style that would be super quick to animate since adventure games use a TON of little animations, these are only about 1/5 of the sprites I've made so far and I still have a bunch to add.
These were brutal to make because most of them will only ever be seen in game for a fraction of a second (if ever) but you still need kinda them. There's not even a room vertically large enough in the game to use more than 3-4 frames of the 8 frame up/down walk cycle lol. It's not all bad though, having made them I have the option of making whoever I want a playable character in future chapters.
