DOC.01What defines this style

Geometric color shapes build a clean side-view hero for bright platform games.

This character asset uses crisp vector geometry, a compact six-color palette and a strict side profile designed for platform-game readability. Its borderless shapes and graphic joints separate it from both clustered pixel sprites and rendered full-body illustration.

Use it for

  • Side-scrolling platform games
  • Mobile arcade characters
  • Vector animation prototypes

Practical notes

  1. In ChatGPT, approve the side-profile silhouette before asking for alternate actions.
  2. Use Gemini to simplify any shape that becomes unreadable at small sizes.
  3. Trace the final raster into SVG only after reducing it to the intended six-color palette.
