Dimensions: Character should be approx 60px Tall - tailor the width to suit this, given that the character is in average proportions. The horizontal size might vary due to animations and stuff.
Shape: Human, Male. Average size. NO ARMS. (20 - if you want the age of the character)
View: Side view platformer.
Style: Not "plain" - needs to look fairly detailed, but not super realistic.
Animated: Yes
Animations required (Note i can flip to make the sprite in the other direction, so you only need to do 1 direction):
>Walk
>Run
>Jumping
>Forward & Backward Flip
>Sliding / being pushed backwards
>Thrown onto back Animation (Should be similar to the back flip animation except player doesn't flip).
>Getting back up from floor animation.
Additionally: 1 frame for still and 1 frame for crouched.
And also, 1 arm for the character (as it is a side view platformer, there is no need for a separate left/right arm).
I would like 4 frames of this 1 arm going from bent to stretched.
Hair: Possibly Silver or black? Do what you think suits the character best here - hair color isn't really an issue provided it looks good.
Clothing: White T-Shirt, black lower half + Brown trainers. Possibly some form of long coat in a suitable color.
If possible, can i have the image origin based around the place where the arm should go?
I will give full credit (i like to). I don't mind what credit you ask me to give (within reason), i will give it - from a banner in the credits to w/e.
I don't mind if the images are supplied as gif, or sprite sheets [given the sizes to use etc] or separate images - whatever format suits you. I cannot progress my game development without this sprite, so if you possible could you do the walking and running and standing bits first so then i have something to work on whilst you work through the rest?
