Mage Combat Pack: Pixel Art Hurt, Guard and Death, 8 Directions

NEW: Part 4 — the Motion & Spell Pack (run, channel, hop, blink, victory) is out.

NEW: Colour Variants are out. Fire, Frost, Nature, Shadow and Light recolours of this mage — 2,265 frames that match Parts 1-3 frame for frame. MAGE Colour Variants (128 px, 8 directions, 5 schools)

The same mage as Part 1 and 2. Now she can take a hit, brace behind her staff and go down. Hurt, guard and death animations in 8 directions, transparent PNG for Unity, Godot or GameMaker. Royalty free, commercial use allowed.

Three one-shot animations in all 8 directions, 128×128 px, same canvas and anchor as the rest of the series:

• Hurt — 7 frames, knocked back, then recovers
• Guard — 7 frames, holds the staff horizontally in front of her, holds, lowers (hold frame 3 while blocking)
• Death — 9 frames, sinks to the knees, folds over, lies still. Hold the last frame; the staff lies on the ground beside her. No blood.

With Part 1 (walk, idle) and Part 2 (cast) that is the complete combat loop for one character: 8 directions, 6 animations, one palette, one perspective.

What you get

• 3 animations × 8 directions = 184 PNGs at 128 px
• a README that says how to play each one (fps, what to hold, what returns to idle)
• asset_info.json with the same facts for build scripts and code assistants
