What is inside
Six creatures after dark.
Something is circling above the castle. This pack gives you six flying monsters: a Greek vrykolakas bat-lord, a winged lamia, an empusa, a giant vampire bat, a stone gargoyle sentinel and a Filipino aswang night-flyer.
Every creature has a flight loop and an attack lunge. The flight is a seamless wingbeat of eight drawings played forward and back, fourteen frames at 70 ms, with the body held steady. The attack is a one-shot of fifteen frames at 80 ms: wind-up, dive and strike, then back along the same drawings so it ends in the pose it began with.
The art is high resolution with pixel-art shading, drawn large so the wing detail reads. All creatures face right; flip them in your engine for the other direction.
