Do I need to Have 16 character sprites if I have 4 classes and 4 races?
<p>So I've started development on a rouge-like platformer. It would be difficult to explain exactly what it's like, but that doesn't matter. What does matter is how many sprites I need.
I have 4 classes and 4 races. (As of now, may add more later) Thief, Warrior, Wizard, and Archer. They all have different suits. As for race; Human, Elven, Reptillian, and Dwarven. Since the player can choose their race and class, do I need to make a sprite of every movement option for every combination of these? That would equal up to 16 different sprites. But since I'm adding movement, jumping, attacking, etc... Ugh I'm getting a headache just thinking about it, Help please?</p>
