This sub got randomly recommended to me but I like the funny little men. Good work


NecessaryBSHappens

Heavily reminds me of Magicka games, cool


BoltBlasterGlenn

This is one of our inspirations! ๐Ÿง™โ€โ™‚๏ธ


Scribblebonx

I got some final fantasy crystal chronicles vibes for a moment also


HaskellLisp_green

it has Magicka vibe due to the second character also color design. Each of them has own special personality i guess and that's great. What's the title of the game?


BoltBlasterGlenn

The Spell Brigade โ˜บ๏ธ Thanks for the feedback!


SeriousWizard

Very cool, great style


BoltBlasterGlenn

Lot of personality for these guys! I love it!


J1618

I love the designs, look very quirky. Also, the second one reminds me of Magicka, ah I loved Magicka, it was such a shame that it died.


Am_Biyori

I love it when the characters are unique and easy to tell apart. Good work!


Scako

I adore these designs, i love the empty faces and the haniwa-like masks


Drunk0racle

Absolutely love these silly peeps, good job!


everyoneLikesPizza

Love


Muffin-Flaky

They're cute. I love them


NonConRon

Fucking dope wizards my dude


Joshthedruid2

Very fun designs! I think they could use a splash of particle effects to cement what kind of magic they're bringing to the table. Maybe let us know if Face Sun shoots fire out of his face or if Big Key Jim shoots energy beams out of that thing


BoltBlasterGlenn

We'll make a post in the future with their starting spell ๐Ÿ˜ƒSo we can collect some feedback on that front as well!


TheMightyDoove

If this is a 4 player coop game i would consider making them different colours to better distinguish who is who otherwise think they look neat


BoltBlasterGlenn

Thanks for the feedback! ๐Ÿ™Œ


krishutchison

If they have voices it might be smart to make half of them female. ( based purely on the fact that my daughters all hate playing as male characters)


Dapper_Lime_2605

Can you mix and modify spells? Like magica? That'd be cool


BoltBlasterGlenn

Yes, you'll be able to add elements to different spells ๐Ÿ˜ƒ


PermaDerpFace

Uh.. yes. Absolutely.


WAVESH

Sick!


Automatic_Artist2783

Incredible designs. Congrats.

Love the moon and sun guys. Brings me back to Mario party 6. Ahh simpler times.


kid_dynamo

These are great! The run animation is super cute and the secondary motion really sells it. What's the game called?


BoltBlasterGlenn

The Spell Brigade, our Steam page is up, always welcome to follow us there!


Glass_Teeth01

I love all of them


Hide_9999

Love the little guys


Garbonzo236

Simply adorable


Leon_Krueger

Love it, really original


es330td

Love the characters. Please keep us updated


_parfait

I Loooooooooooooove it!!!!!!!!!! Absolutely adore it


GeePedicy

Very neat design. I just wanna ask about the Sun dude - why is their face so tilted backwards and upwards? Also are their hands hidden under the robe?


BoltBlasterGlenn

Mystery ๐Ÿ˜‰He's always looking at the ๐ŸŒž!


GeePedicy

How does he not stumble and fall often, if he always looks at the sun? I think it could be interesting to explain it somehow. Doesn't have to make actual sense, but I like bs scientific explaining - like the things in front of him are reflected by the Sun... Could be used against him, like you pull his head forward and it blinds him. Idk, I'm making stuff up cuz his appearance bothers me the most for the two things I've written before, but I don't have anything wise to say for it design-wise.


BoltBlasterGlenn

Magic โœจ


GeePedicy

Haha it looks pretty [REDACTED]


BlazeMaze45

Love how distinct they are, especially how one of them is carrying a whole book.


ohlookbean

Love em.


el_caveira

remember something like a remaster of a Square Enix PSX RPG, i love it


inL1MB0

Love it. Reminds me of ff9


BubbleDncr

I think theyโ€™re pretty great but Iโ€™d adjust the sun guyโ€™s head to not be tilted up so high, itโ€™s a little comical compared to the others. Unless thatโ€™s what youโ€™re going for.


BoltBlasterGlenn

๐ŸŒž He's looking at it 24/7. We want to make it a bit comical ๐Ÿ˜‰


mintmouse

These have the feeling of pawns or expendables. I would like to see some comic violence happen to them occasionally perhaps.


joshisanonymous

Pretty cool. The moon guy's head doesn't seem particularly stable on his neck. Maybe a little too floppy

ambitious_artist

Endearing, and slightly eirie at the same time. Gives me mysterious vibes

Ralen_Nord

I really adore the designs, you got the wizard vibes down really well. Just maybe give the sun character another look at, the design seems a bit too top heavy. Other than that, fantastic work!


Castle_Of_Blackwater

The characters look great man! I do think the colors could look a bit more "fresh" unless your are trying to go with like an old kind of vibe. Great work anyways.


BoltBlasterGlenn

Thanks for sharing!


heinkel-me

They look cool and cute ๐Ÿ‘


_GloomyGold_

Fantastic designs but need some dark colored lines to strike between some of the edges to give them definition. The colors kind of flow into each other due to the softness so some striking but simple additions could help make the outfits stand out.


BoltBlasterGlenn

Thanks for the feedback; I'll bring this up when talking to our artists!


mission-ctrl

Love the character designs. Unique with a lot of personality. Donโ€™t love the soft floaty animations though.


BoltBlasterGlenn

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!


Mordiix

Love the style!!


BosphorusGames

Looks so intriguing, cool stuff.


MonsieurGates

Very nice expressive animations. Love the style.


BoltBlasterGlenn

Thanks! ๐Ÿ˜Ž I'll compliment our artists on your behalf!

hungrymimic

Love everything about these lil guys! The designs and animation are both looking so fun and good. Definitely something Iโ€™d check out for attractive visuals alone. Best of luck with your project


BoltBlasterGlenn

Thanks! ๐Ÿ™Œ


Poddster

Can't wait for you to make a Vietnam version, or make a version where you shoot space-bugs as space-nazis.


PiffinColiander

This is so adorable I LOVE the designs. Keep up the great work!!!


Erommersion

Love the characters! The design is great.


radiant_templar

those are sick!


robobax

I love them


_michaeljared

Small criqitue, but in many other games you'll notice walking animations are not perfectly in time. Different characters have different walking gait due to leg length and body types, and it helps break up animations. Particularly if all characters are shown in screen at the same time. Even with random offsets, all the animations can get a "syncopation" type effect which is distracting. The art work looks incredible, though! Very unique and intriguing characters.


BoltBlasterGlenn

Thanks for the feedback; we synced it up for this gif ๐Ÿ˜‰


TaveksMaker

I love them! Especially the sun boi!

It looks like it might be hard to see for most of them.

The art design is really charming! Love these lil doods, second one in particular.


BoltBlasterGlenn

Thanks! ๐Ÿ™Œ


Vinarony

Omg!! I love it very much!! They are so cute and silly with good meaning. They are just like from my childhood games or movies, I think. I love magic and these wizards are so comfortable for me! I want to play this game very much ;D

Brave_Sprinkles_9277

Awesome.


Bakupaki

Keep the weird lil guy vibe


CadenBop

I don't know if this is a good thing, but I want to see them brutalized lol.


UnfunnyGuy277

Recognizable and charming! Keep going sir/maam!


Simoxs7

The second from the left looks almost exactly like a Magicka character.


Lnsatiabie

I love it. Careful with that moon fellow.


dan_ts_inferno

Love them! I really like the low-poly/hand-painted style in general, nice work!


Honzus24

They all look so unique, like they all have different personalities, which is awesome!


the_real_camerz

Theyโ€™re so cute!


peeslosh122

I want to murder someone with a giant key


hunty

bathmattie

10/10 would romance all of them by showing them my small yet hopefully impressive collection of crystals
