great stuff guys.! Francesco Segala very cool, quirky style but i like it. cannonbreed digging those animations, the rider is great. keep up the great pixels!
very cool Mask_Salesman ! the only thing i would say is get some more secondary anims on that hair ! it's begging for it.. and TY some more early Valfaris concepts.
I remembered that there's this free book by Ari Feldman on pixel art. Chapter 9 is entirely dedicated to animation, and includes an analysis of a walk and run cycles. http://www.widgetworx.com/book/
I made a start on a 32x32 No animations yet, need to figure how to screen cap it down. Worlds smallest schmup. Click to play Arrow / WASD + Space or Num + to fire
Never done a pixel character before, and never animated a 2d character either so this is quite rough. Missing a frame or two I know, but I like a couple of em!
The art in this thread is awesome. @Pixel: Looks like the run animation could do with some angle to the body or something. Looks a bit weird with the character standing up almost perfectly straight.
Wow! I got some animated pixel dudes on my portfolio, takes to long time to import everybody so I just link it here http://www.cnordgren.com/#!2d/c1vji
