Because his owner hasn't fed him for a week, he now seeks revenge. He's jacked some rocket parts, installed in his favorite can, and goes around harrassing anyone who comes near.

24 frames total. For those who are asking, there's a white border around him because I'm planning to use him for a shmup. It's to identify him as a targetable object. Plus his features would disappear if he's placed on a dark bg.

Please, don't spam comments, especially when it's not related to the piece. Browse through the forums. There are tons of threads about working with animation programs. If you can't find answers, you can also post your question there. You're bound to get more help that way.

Yah. You could get the free version, the catch is you can't save animated .gifs. There's also a forum thread about the other apps available.

After Effects is a video compositing program, though for pixel art it's annoying to set up. I use it for motion projects, so I always keep it handy.

thanx. you mean you bought it? and is After Efect a program?

I use Graphics Gale for the most part. For animated mock-ups or other things with multiple sprites I compile them in After Effects. Cumbersome keeping it from antialiasing though..

Adorable! I like the bulging sides on the can and the distortion/stretching on the ears when he ducks back in. Nicely done.

Thanks guys.

@Rand:

That detail's still up in the air, so to speak. Right now I'm imagining him like how Koopa Jr., Dr.Wiley or Dr.Robotnick would come and go with their airship. I'll probably get back to that detail after I finish doing a few more tiles for the mockup I'm doing.
