Spectral Raiders Set – Top-Down 8-Direction Character Sprites (HD)
A downloadable asset pack
Four HD ghost characters for top-down games. Spectral Assassin, Spectral Ranger, Spectral Footsoldier and Spectral Troll: pale, see-through and softly glowing, with wisps where the feet fade. Every animation in all 8 directions, 212×236 px, 228×216 px, 232×222 px and 250×222 px frames (plus 128 px copies), and a mist death for every character.
What's inside
4 characters, $8.99 instead of $11.96 bought one by one. Each is also sold on its own:
Attacks and a mist death
Blade, bow, rifle and club attacks, each in all 8 directions, aimed where the character faces. Every character also has a mist death: the body pales, breaks into mist and drifts upward, 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)
- Spectral Assassin: idle, walk, run, attack, attack2, attack3, attack4, hurt, death, mist death (228×216 px)
- Spectral Ranger: idle, walk, run, attack, attack2, attack3, hurt, death, mist death (212×236 px)
- Spectral Footsoldier: idle, walk, run, attack, attack2, attack3, attack4, hurt, death, mist death (232×222 px)
- Spectral Troll: idle, walk, run, attack, hurt, death, mist death (250×222 px)
All 8 directions

Quick import

- Keep the supplied feet pivot so characters stand on the ground in every direction.

FAQ
Which size should I use? The native size (listed above) or the 128 px copies; pick one scale for your camera.
Do they match the other packs? Yes: the same camera angle, scale and light direction as every character in the series, so the ghost versions can fight next to the originals.
