Pixel Art Creature Sprite - Cranky Crab

This is a simple animated crab for an RPG or adventure game. It comes with all of the following animations, in 2 directions (up-angle and down-angle, which can be flipped to represent movement in any direction):

• 4-frame walk cycle, calmly, claws down
• 4-frame walk cycle, excitedly, claws up
• 2-frame attack, to the side
• 2-frame attack, up/down (depending on facing)
• 1-frame "block" (hide behind claws)
• 1-frame "got hit"
• 1-frame lying flat out, eyes closed (1 direction only for this one)

The crab is around 32 pixels high but pops a little out of this space for the attack animations. Each frame is centered in a 64x64 pixel cell on the sprite sheet. The sheet is 256x512 in total and comes with three different types of shells, with each in eight unique color variants.

New in version 2.0: A Secret of Mana-inspired 6-frame explosion animation for use when your monster dies.
