Sprite Animation with Doug
Hello everyone, Doug here! I wear a lot of hats for Advent of the Reaper, including being the creator of the story, the game designer, and one of the pixel artists for the game! This month I’ll be pulling back the curtain and running through my process for a single combat animation. Even though the combat is not interactive in this genre of game (or perhaps especially for that reason), our combat animations need to be quick, appealing, and exciting to keep the player engaged. Let’s dive in!
Come see us at the Midwest Gaming Classic!
The Advent of the Reaper demo will be available to play in the Future Classics Showcase at the Midwest Gaming Classic in Milwaukee, WI! Doug will be flying in from the East Coast — Lucas and Leigh will welcome him to the land of cheese and beer, and teach him to properly use “ope” before socializing with other Wisconsinites.
Come by for a day or the whole weekend — and be sure to say hi at Advent’s first event of 2024! We can’t wait to see you there!
