Question  10-12-2016, 03:29 PM
Planning on creating a project that demos various 2D platformer type sprites by letting you switch between them while running around a simple map. I want to add some great examples so I came to the experts. What is your favorite animated game sprite or sprites?

My most favorite would have to be from Sonic Advance. 2 and 3 specifically...

A more traditional platformer with great sprites: Magical Pop'n for the Super Famicom Smile

Pretty much anything from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, particularly Alucard's sprites.

I love the sprites in most Metal Slug games and Dragon Ball: Advanced Adventure.

Can't have 2D platforming without Mario and Sonic.

I second Dragon Ball : Advanced Adventure.

Out of all of the classic Sonic games. I prefer Sonic 3's over the first two. Mainly Sonic himself for the most part out of his incarnations.
Also both Earthworm Jim games and Aladdin (Genesis/Amiga/DOS), which were converted from amazing hand-drawn animations.

Astro from Astro Boy: Omega Factor, Mega Man from Mega Man 8/& Bass, Shantae (any game), I could go on for quite a while.
