thanks! So the shadows are just the sprites drawn completely black, rotated, squished and then offset for which sprite is used (e.g. moving south uses the "move east" sprite)
Great work :D. Just bought this asset pack, for my project, absolutely love it! I would love to know how you set up the character’s shadow in Game Maker, is the shadow a seperate sprite or are you using a shader?
Thanks! There is actually a downloadable project file that comes with the asset for 5$ which has the shadows rendering as well as some extra sprites! :)
Basically I am just drawing the 90 degree offset of my player sprite. So for example, if you move south, I draw the east movement sprite and rotate it -90 degrees, and shrink/stretch it some. :)
Oh no way! You’re an absolute legend, I didn’t see it there in the bonus files. You have no idea how much time this will save me, I’m really looking forward to tinkering around with it and learning from your project file. Thanks mate! :D
Hey! Thanks for this. I bought this and was wondering specifically what I needed to do if I wanted to use any of the assets here in my own project. Like, if I used the lighting object or the shader, or if I used the sprite as inspiration for my own project, do I need to include the copywrite notice or give you credit in a specific way?
hey! So there is no "gun holding" sprite per say. In that video I simple use the walking sprite and a "gun" sprite stack that I simply rotate around the player. :)
Didn't notice the clause that the bonus is included at $5 and above and bought the base version. Is it possible now to get the bonus without paying the full $5?
I was just curious if I could reach out to you about the gms2 demo you show in the video. I am having a hard time figuring out how you made the bullets travel towards the crosshair while aiming. I've never used physics in gms before. Any help would be seriously appreciated and Id be willing to pay you for your time.
It seems the demo is not the same as the one shown in the video. The shooting and the bushes are not included.
Hey! Yeah, those are the only 2 things missing compared to the video as I cannot find the exact video version since it is lost to time. Haha. IIRC I am just using the "collision_line()" function and just drawing a line for a split second across the screen.
My Apologies! The assets were all in the GMS project. I have updated the `Bonus` zip folder to include all of the extra content separately now as well as the GMS2 project! :)

Thanks for these assets, they're really great and coming in handy for my prototype.
Question, in the video, how did you achieve the shadows? They look really good!
thanks! So the shadows are just the sprites drawn completely black, rotated, squished and then offset for which sprite is used (e.g. moving south uses the "move east" sprite)
I figured this might be the case! Thanks for confirming that, I'm going to give something similar a try!
Love this style 5 stars, please do more :)
Thanks so much! If I ever get time it would be fun to expand it! haha. Maybe some day. :)

Great work, would buy more assets of the same theme. Especially NPCs/Enemies
what is the size? 32x32 or 64x64?
32x32. :)
Should melee north and south have a reversed variant too? I don't seem to have those in my pack
Sorry I never saw this. For those you would just flip the x axis. At least thats what I did when I originally made them. Haha.
Hooded drifter? I tried to find the game on Itch or Steam, but with no positive results. :(
oh that's just the name or the asset. It's not an actual game. Haha
Well, I think this needs to change. ;)

Nope! Go crazy! No crediting required. Use any code or shader you wish. :)
Hi - I've just bought your Drifter asset. Everything is fantastic, except I can't seem to see the sprites for when the drifter draws their gun?
hey! So there is no "gun holding" sprite per say. In that video I simple use the walking sprite and a "gun" sprite stack that I simply rotate around the player. :)
Hope this helps.
That makes sense - thanks for the reply!
Aimed to recreate your demo with a basic gameloop: https://bodyaq.itch.io/winternight-drifter
Nice! Looks great! :)
Didn't notice the clause that the bonus is included at $5 and above and bought the base version. Is it possible now to get the bonus without paying the full $5?
I will look into uploading the other assets as an individual 2$ asset if possible, though this would not include the GMS example project.
I bought it again anyway, awesome work! Did you also create the sounds (in the video) yourself or do you use some assets?
Oh, thank you so much! They are actually from Fesilyan Studios!

awesome thanks! And what function were you using to add in the screen shake
Hello i just bought ur character it looks amazing btw but the main problem is it has no idle animation its a static idle?
Nice asset
Thanks so much! No, it is only a static idle sprite, however I may update this in the future
What is the license for the example project? Would I be allowed to build off of it?
Absolutely! You can edit and modify as you wish!
Thanks! Would I be allowed to use this for a commercial project?
100%!
I have updated the page to include an MIT license for the asset! :)
Thank you :) I will give you credit if I decide to create anything with your assets!
I just bought for $5. I don't see scenery sprites/tileset. Is it possible to included? I only saw player sprites
My Apologies! The assets were all in the GMS project. I have updated the `Bonus` zip folder to include all of the extra content separately now as well as the GMS2 project! :)
Thanks!
no problem! And thank you so much again! I hope you enjoy them! :)
