Chaos High Sprites
Part of the work I did for a mobile game a few years ago. It was supposed to be a 2-D scrolling beat-em-up game, set in a high-school. The premise was pretty kooky (since I was the one who wrote it): it was about the Student Council President and her lackeys beating the school back into submission after the students started rioting. The game, unfortunately, never came to fruition.
I was the person in charge of planning and animating all the sprites, despite having ZERO experience in animation (illustration major). Many hours were spent pacing, punching and kicking for me to understand how the movements worked, but it was fun. The sprites are only 10 frames-per-second though, which I feel is low, but our art "team" only had 2 people with no experience, so some corners had to be cut, and we reasoned that it was a 2010 mobile game, so the quality can be lower.
Sorry, I don't have the full-colour completed versions, since someone else did the colouring.
Compilation I did as a showpiece of the sprites, featuring: the Occult Club President, the Foreign Student, and the Prez.
The Prez (student council president) was supposed to be a stoic, no-nonsense, heavy-hitter Player Character.
Deacon the student-teacher was supposed to be the average Player Character.
The Nurse was supposed to be the fast and combo-reliant Player Character.
To emphasize her speed, the Nurse had almost no downtime when staggered. Second half is her defeat animation.
Nurse's Special Attack, a hurricane move.
Random school thug (heavy Japanese influence, like almost all my work).
The Vice-President is the first enemy boss of the game, supposed to be a sneaky fellow who betrays the Player.
The proposed "hidden boss", a Librarian who stumbled into an unspeakable tome and is now possessed. (Her tome disappears, what a blunder by me!)
The Librarian before her full possession.
The Foreign Student is supposed to be a "Blood Knight" trope, she has no stakes in the plot, she just wants to fight people.
