Shadow Ronin – Top-Down 8-Direction Character Sprite (HD)
A downloadable asset pack
An HD shadow ronin for top-down games. The Shadow Ronin: a dark violet silhouette with a lilac rim light and smoke peeling off it. Every animation in all 8 directions, 252×226 px frames (plus 128 px copies), and a smoke death.
Katana attacks and a smoke death
Three katana attacks, each in all 8 directions, aimed where the ronin faces. The smoke death: the body dissolves into drifting smoke behind a glowing violet edge, ending on empty frames so you can remove the character without a pop. The regular death is in the pack too.
Animations (8 directions each)
- Movement: idle, walk, run
- Combat: attack, attack2, attack3
- Reactions: hurt, death, smoke death
All 8 directions

FAQ
Which size should I use? The native 252×226 px or the 128 px copies; pick one scale for your camera.
Does it match the other packs? Yes: the same camera angle, scale and light direction as every character in the series, so the shadow version can fight next to the originals.
