Best sprites / animations

[SNKPlaymoreFan]

Braid - I enjoy the painted style and Tim's animations. The various effects of the world are also nice, they're quite subtle but they're also affected by the flow of time and involve the entire level in time manipulation (rather than only characters and items).



Dustforce - I really love this aesthetic and the character's animations. Honestly, one of the reasons I keep playing this and trying to get better is simply because of how cool it looks, especially when you pull off stuff really smoothly.

Metal Slug - One that everyone knows, basically all of the Metal Slug games look amazing. Both the sprites and the animations are just great.





Are those from metal slug defense?
