Hi! I've made 3 games, and the first 2 were with the default roger's view. The third was made by me, but I made frame by frame with paint ;D. Yes I know, I'm a jackass. I wanted to know if there's a quick way to make several animated characters. Thanks :)
Practice!
Use a program that supports layers and draw clothing, hair, face, etc. on separate layers.
What kind of programms are that? I used Paint as well, I started to have so much respect for your patience... :P
Try this:

You draw your limbs in paint and it will animate them for you.
That programm is great! I probably will reanimate my character in there! Thanks!
We all win with that program. It seems great, and was exactly what I had in mind (some program that makes everything for you ;D) I'll try it tomorrow. Thanks a lot!
sry reposting.
Cheers from Finland!
Im sorryI'm new in here andI'm not sure to where post this.
Im interested to make a own playable character in my game, so where do i begin? Do i have to draw character via computer or etc from side, front, back ? And also how i can animate my character?
Thanks for your help in forwards
Yes.
Create a default game, then look at the existing Views and Sprites.
Ty. :)
