Task: Character Design - Wedge

[clevertree]

Character Design - Wedge

• Side Character
• Forward Support Battalion Commander
• Skinny body armor designed for reconnaissance
• In charge of the ground assault on the Moon

Tasks:

1. PRIORITY: Design a new Character Sheet similar to the one provided with your take on a settled design on the character "Wedge". Feel free to choose any direction you wish, and ask questions if you have any. Please use directions on the Character Concept Draft as your guide for what we want.

2. BASED ON DESIGN OF 1: Design a 2D Platformer Sprite Sheet. This can be simple, something that can be imported into the graphics engine and tested out. Feel free to use any sprite sheet methodology you prefer until we solidify our process.

PIXEL ART REQUIREMENTS:

• Characters no more than 8 - 12 colors for now
• Color theory is <3
• Fluid animation with personality choices, characteristic of Wedge.
• "pixel block size" - flexible - think LATE SNES shading/color choices with PS1 (or even later) details - balanced
• We'll be using PNG files with alpha transparency for all sprite-sheets. The Alpha value will also determine the hit-box for the character.
• Preferred tool: https://www.aseprite.org/

Example of a 2D 'Platformer' side-ways view with directional aiming, and jumping:
