About the Class

In this course, you will learn how to combine two amazing free programs to create smooth and flexible 2D game character animations.

Inkscape is a free and open-source Vector Illustration software. With it, you can create versatile, ready to use character designs in no time. Draw anything, export in any size - perfect for 2D game design. There are several great courses published about Inkscape, but in this one, you can learn how to create a character and make it ready to animate.

DragonBones is a free 2D Skeletal Animation program. Import your character parts, create the bone system and animate. The standalone version just came out at the end of 2016, so this is the first full and comprehensive English course about DragonBones. There are only very few DragonBones tutorials online if you want to learn the software, this is a good place to start.

What will you learn in this course?

  • Design a simple knight character in Inkscape (feel free to design your very own character using the same method
  • Export the character properly to be used with DragonBones
  • Assemble the character and build up the skeletal structure
  • Create and use meshes to animate soft bodies, like cape and hair
  • Create four basic animations for the same character: idle, walk, attack, die (more will be added later
  • Easily modify your character to a totally new version, while keeping all the animations
