So I’m thinking of making a black smithing game where you take orders from other villagers and the character is inspired by some artwork that I found on Pinterest. Unfortunately I’m unable to find who the artist is. I have quite a few ideas for how the game is going to run and how I’m going to incorporate the weapon into the game.
Also its incredibly late but I found a great resource for pixel art that is free. https://free-game-assets.itch.io/free-basic-pixel-art-ui-for-rpg
That is one gnarly Hammer. You did a really good job reducing it all down to a fairly small sprite, the characters overall design still comes through, and you would be able to recognize them on box art as the character you’re playing as if it were like an old nes game or something. Good stuff.
