Creating character graphics for a roguelike is hard work. (Patreon)

It's me.

It's tough being a roguelike, with eight directions for both enemies and allies! That's what I'm talking about.

Even if you make full use of left-right reversal, you need 5 patterns: forward, backward, left and right, diagonally forward, and diagonally backward.

In Rignetta's adventure, only I and Rumba have 8 directions.

All other characters have a maximum of four directions.

For many characters, the diagonal front is diverted to the side and the diagonal back is diverted to the back to make it look like that.

Well, I think it's surprisingly manageable even this way.

There are roguelike dungeons sold on steam that have only one pattern of characters facing sideways.

I guess that kind of thing is possible if it's interesting.

It makes me deeply feel what is most important in a game.

This is only selfish, but I have a feeling that I would like to make 8-way graphics for all my characters in this game if possible.

I want to love all the characters in my game equally because they are all cute my characters.

So this is my 8-directional animation this time.

I'm thinking about reducing the size of the squares a little more, since it turned out to be more compact than I had expected.

I'm actually layering a wizard costume instead of full nudity, so that's an adjustment I'll have to make after I make that.

Well, that being said, it is difficult to make the 8 directions of the quarter view consistent.

I think it's really hard, especially the horizontal orientation.

I'll do my best!

Also, the story is too rushed and it may be difficult this month, but I'd like to start publishing comics or something limited to paid plans in the next month or so.

If I make progress, I will start putting them out this month, but since I made the plan the day before yesterday, it is undecided.

Also, this will be different from the planned sales items. Maybe!

Thanks to my tax accountant, I was able to float a lot of taxes, so I created a job to give back to the artists on these occasions.

I will be very happy if the artist will benefit from my drawing.

I want to give back a lot, so I would be very happy if you could support me (I want to create an economic zone for RIGNETTA-san).

If possible, I would love to draw myself!
