A downloadable asset pack for Windows

the challenge asks for us to create 4 animations, that can be fit together into a sequence, and idle, power up, release and recovery animations. My initial idea was to draw inspiration from classic snk and capcom fighting games, since those had a lot of fun charge up sequences in them. Although I got a lot of nice reference, i felt like all my ideas were a bit too derivative of existing animations. So I decided to shift away from just general fighting games and decided to focus more on a specific aesthetic.

The idea of a power up sequence reminded of tokusatsu shows (japanese superhero shows like kamen rider and super sentai) these shows feature a lot of transformation and power up sequences, with a lot energetic poses, I also thought that this would make for a quite unique and fun set of animations.

The goal for these animations is to emulate the silly and over the top energy of tokusatsu transformations being mindful of how the poses will be viewed by the player in different angles.
