This is a timelapse video from 2Dgameartguru.com of a character creation process in Affinity Designer.
I am working with shapes and colours to create a game character from scratch - and without a concept [it was 2.30am and I just wanted to have some fun ;)].
Most of the functionality shown in the video can be created with other software tools such as Adobe's Illustrator, CorelDraw, or Inkscape with minor alterations and different names for the tools used.

This video tutorial from 2Dgameartguru.com continues with the changes and additions to the caveman game character from the previous video.
The video explains how to easily and quickly add more depth and detail to your game character in Inkscape. After working on the head in part1, we polish the separate body parts in this video to create some game-ready assets that look good and work in animation software like Spine, Spriter, or Dragon Bones [to name just a few of the tools available for skeletal based animation for games].
