Artist Notes:

I watched Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom gameplays and wanted to figure out how to capture the joy of collecting animal friends from that world into this one chubby dog. A small personal art goal bucketlist achieved, overcomed topdown pixel animation self-challenge.

Time taken: 342 hours to figure out stable art and animation design workflows, resolve technical errors and animation logistic chaos via trial and error.
