8 Directional Knight Character
A downloadable asset pack
Pixel art style 8-Directional Knight Character for your games and prototypes! Perfect for HD2D / 2D3D styles. You can use the up, down, left, and right sprite sheets as a standard 4-directional character or even just the left and right animations for a side scroller. If you are using the Unreal Engine I highly suggest using them together with the free paperZD plugin for 2.5D projects! The asset license, which you can learn more about by clicking on the "More information" tab, is set to Creative Commons Zero! So, you don't have to worry!
The "Knight-Only" bundles are FREE and come with all 30+ animations. Add your own sword and shields or opt for the premium "Sword Knight" or "Sword and Shield Knight" versions.

Great to see a new face on the pre-rendered 3D scene!
Knight has been onboarded.
I love it! Looks awesome!!Keep up the grind!
You too!! I love the simplistic shading on your sprites, it makes them so easy to read.
I really like this animation pack, but for my project I would need the same character in different outfits. I would not need all 33 animations though, perhaps about half of them. Do you take commissions?
Hello, and thank you for your interest in this asset! I don't really take commissions as this is just a hobby of mine for the time being. However, if you would like to continue this conversation, feel free to send me a message on X https://twitter.com/hormelzgames.
Never used twitter, but I created an account and tried to send you a message there.
Duplicating my question here: is there a reason why bundle doesn't include paid/non-free animations?
Hello, everything should be included in the bundle. When I make the sale on itch it only allows me to pick assets that are paid. I'm not sure if something has changed with the site. Could you try checking again? Also, if anyone else has had the same problem with the bundle, please leave a comment! Really sorry for the trouble, I'll try to investigate more.
unfortunately, I only see free stuff there
Thank you for sharing that info with me! I have contacted you on X to get you the correct keys!
I'm not sure if you would be interested in doing this but I think some of the sprite sheets could just be one long file. Otherwise I'm glad they come with json file!
Thank you for the feedback! I'll definitely take it into consideration in my future work.
These are awesome, thanks for making them!
You are very welcome! Enjoy and good luck with your game!
Does this come as .png asset sheets? If so i'm 100% buying them for my custom game 😁
Nvm looks like it does, purchased :p
Thank you very much! Good luck with your game! I'd love to see it when it's done 👍
