This project was originally going to be for GSE-Fest 2025, but since I was making my own engine for it (without a guide or any outside help) I... gave up on that idea. This is still cool though, in my opinion. Inspiration (with videogame nerd stuff) below. For some reason I thought of multiple other games while making this, with the idle animation being a reference to Yoshi's Island (SNES, 1995), and the death animation's design coming from Megaman / Rockman. I also played a lot of the game Gimmick! (NES, 1992), which I played a bunch when I got stuck making this, to take off some stress.
