Description
These are NPCs that I have drawn for my upcoming game. Which ones do you think I should focus on using in the Kickstarter video? I only need 10 or so of them but I love all these guys...Preorder Guardians of the Rose on Kickstarter now: www.kickstarter.com/projects/b…
So, as always please critique and lemme know which one's are your favorites/which one's I should highlight via the Kickstarter video.

I have never done a kickstarter for my work, so please forgive me if my understanding of how it works is incorrect. However, I kind of view a kickstarter campaign as a type of commercial outlet to show off a product. In this aspect, I would focus not on a specific NPC, but what NPC would show your main characters off better within the game. Do you have NPCs that work with your party, that never officially join the main party, but help their development? For an example, look at the current popular game undertale where you have the main character, but you also have Sans and his brother as main NPCs that help the character get to the end. Do you have enemy NPCs that the main character will battle against in game as enemies or bosses? Focus on them. In my opinion, you don't want to what I call "oversell" your game by putting a lot of time and development into characters that won't be "important" to the game, but those that could potentially make or break the game from a players view point. As I always say, please let me know if I overstep my boundries, but that is my current view point on the question you asked.

Those are very good points but these will be more like background decoration for the video while I have two characters that are integral parts of the story that I haven't revealed yet and I may not reveal until the video.

Fair enough. I was under the impression they would be fully animated like you've been doing with the main character, not just a "miminal" level.

lol yeah I always liked the character that can rise above his beast-self and become a sentient being
also, I'm considering making the snake guy a species and with their own city and whatnot but haven't decided on whether I can draw enough of them to look different from each other

you could just make them all the same and if anyone says anything about them all looking the same, call them racist

I'd think it would depend on what your gonna be doing on your video. Different mock ups with their fitting characters, maybe? Maybe show off some in-game environment stuff with your NPCs in places like a town or something. Maybe some dungeon action if you have it.
Looks good man, I can't choose

Yeah, most of these guys will be in the main town but there are a few things I wanna show off w/ NPCs in the wilderness and such.
