Viking Boy Spriter Project (7Zip) (Spriter Pro)

This file contains a Spriter Pro animation project, as well as a collection of sprites (PNG slices)representing parts of the viking boy character's body and its component items, such as the sword. Also representations of visual effects such as sword slash effect. To open and edit this file you will need the Spriter Pro, maybe the free version will work too (not confirmed). (you can buy Spriter here) . This option is useful if you want to customize the character and add new items or new animations, You can also create new entities (characters) by duplicating the Viking and then modifying the parts of the copied character instead of the original. Otherwise, if you just want to use the character as it is, maybe it's more practical to use the sequence of PNG animations available in the downloads.

This version can also be easily imported into various video game engines using dedicated plugins that are available on the Developer's website. In the list are Unity Engine Importer versions as well as Construct 2 and 3, C++, C#, Javascript, LibGDX, Game Maker Studio and Monogame can be downloaded from this link. Godot version can be download from this link.

Viking Boy Affinity Designer (Source File)

*You must have Affinity Designer to edit this version (if you don't have it, there are other editing methods in the downloads) This download contains an Affinity Designer project file containing the Viking Boy Character, body parts and accompanying items distributed in vector layers (no loss of virtual quality). This is the original file from which subsequent versions were exported. The File has a suggested resolution of 2K, however since they are vectors, the size can be expanded to more than 8K. This file is ideal if you want to edit the character's original file to create visual variations that can be exported as slices and loaded into Spriter Pro to reuse existing animations, or even import into Egret's Dragon Bones, Esoteric's Spine, or maybe Pixelmash or PixelOver and from them create your own animations.

Viking Boy Source (SVG - Converted)  (use Inkscape SVG Format)

*Use this version in case you don't have Affinity Designer, as Inkscape is a robust free vector editor. 

This download contains an Inkscape SVG file containing the Viking Character, body parts (no loss of virtual quality). Since the objects are vectors, the size can be expanded to whatever you want. 

This file is ideal if you want to edit the character's original file to create visual variations that can be exported as separated objects to PNG's and loaded into Spriter Pro to reuse existing animations, or even import into Egret's Dragon Bones, Esoteric's Spine, or maybe Pixelmash and PixelOver and from them create your own animations.

Also works with other free vector graphics editors (including Synfig Studio animation software)

Viking Boy Sprites Sequence (PNG)

The generated animations were pre-rendered into image sequences (PNG) that can be easily resized and imported into game development software that supports 2D Sprites, such as Unity, Godot or even the Unreal Engine.

This file has a collection of sub-folders with 800 x 800 pixels square resolution image sequences. The image sequence is named using the name of the folder it is located in, name that represents the action that the character is doing, each image is followed by an ordered numbering in the direction of the animation.

1. die
2. dizzy
3. hurt
4. idle
5. jump
6. run
