TINY KINGDOM: 2D MODULAR CHARACTER EDITOR & ANIMATION

Create, customize, and animate hundreds of cute mini-characters for your game without dropping a single frame!

This asset provides a modular, ultra-lightweight 2D Character Editor that works seamlessly both in the Unity Editor and during Runtime. Perfect for Top-Down Roguelikes, RPGs, Platformers, Adventures, and massive Tower Defense games.

📜 ABOUT THE ASSET

Built with performance in mind. Unlike heavy skeletal systems or memory-consuming frame-by-frame animations, these characters are animated using simple Position & Rotation transforms of basic parts (Head, Body, Arms, Legs).

• Ultra-Lightweight & Mobile Optimized: Zero Meshes and zero Skinned Sprites mean virtually no CPU overhead. It smoothly handles 100+ active characters on screen simultaneously — ideal for mobile devices and massive battles!
• Crisp Scaling: The 512x512 sprite sheet resolution looks stunning both as a large main hero in the center of the screen or as tiny units in a crowded Tower Defense map.
• Expansive Customization: Mix and match modular parts to create unique factions, heroes, and enemies. Every sprite comes in 2 variants: Front and Back views. Includes 20+ Armor Sets (Helmets, Chestplates, Shields) and 50+ Weapon Variants (Melee, Ranged, Magical).
• Continuous Updates: This is a growing asset! We plan to release regular free updates with new sprites, weapons, and customization options.
• Smart Top-Down Features: Includes an automated Y-Sorting script. No more clipping issues! The ready-to-use C# script dynamically adjusts the SortingOrder of the character's SortingGroup based on their Y-position as they move.
• Complete Ecosystem: This asset pack is 100% visually compatible with our other assets, including "Tiny Kingdom: Tower Defense" and our dedicated Top-Down environment sprite packs and tilesets.
