In the process of preparing to help teach a course on game development for Black Girls Code, I went in search of a sprite of a Black girl for the hero character. After searching several sprite sites, I found none. So, I hired a designer to create one.
- You are free to use this art! These images are offered under an MIT license, so go to town!
- There is a hero and a baddie both with and without grounding shadows.
- The hero is centered in a frame that’s 69x92px. The baddie’s is 59x68px.
- The hero has 4 states: left, down, right, up. The baddie has 2 states: eye open, eye closed.
Here is a demo with the art in place in a simple game based on work by Catt Small. See the characters with grounding shadows by appending ?shadows to the URL.
