Stocking the shelves
Contents
A sprite generator is only as good as what you feed it, so this week went into the pantry.
Animations
About 2,400 animation files, sorted by what they do (locomotion, idles, gestures, unarmed combat and so on) and by which skeleton they were made for. Clips made for one skeleton don't fit another without retargeting, so that sorting matters more than it sounds. A search finds what you need. "Zombie" turns up 44 files, which is more zombie than I expected to own.
Every original file is fingerprinted, so I can prove nothing has been changed or lost. Twelve exact duplicates are kept on purpose. I've learned not to delete things on a hunch.
Models
For the world itself: 409 models from two of Kenney's free CC0 packs, the Nature Kit with 329 models and the Survival Kit with 80. Trees, rocks, cliffs, fences, logs and barrels.
They're split into 13 import batches by category, at most 80 to a folder, each with its licence and source kept alongside. Next stop for them is Frieze, to come out the other side as pixel-art sprites. Thanks to Kenney for making these free for everyone.
