Oop, just realized I left the ol' pallete in their

Why is his light source the only thing moving?

[Sherman Gill]

Dang. Is that how it looks?

I see what you mean now.

Call me crazy, but I like it. It's like a new spin on Gas13's sketchy animation style. The warm colors make it seem as if he is in a lava/hot filled environment where steam is causing the illusion of movement. Be awesome if there some shooting sprites and stuff...

That may actually happen.
Think the lightsource I have on it currently is problematic for a Metroid style game?

The lightsource would definitely be problematic if it were to be used in an actual game; When he turns around it will look like the sun whipped around with him like it's attached by a pan handle.

Reshaded.

Also hoping it's got a more consistent sense of motion.

I like the style, design and execution , but the motion still doesn't get through very well in my opinion. It feels to me like one of those wobbly characters in a Bill Plympton animation- which isn't a bad thing on its own, but it means that if you're trying to convey a full body motion than you should probably exaggerate it a bit more.

Lineart for running ani:

Somethings off about it.

[Xion]

I think the off thing is the way the closest leg seems to kinda bend the wrong way when it goes forward. Notice how the far leg always has the knee bent down like that? Yeah, the close leg doesn't do that. And usually walks are fairly symmetrical.
