If it helps at all, the startcart 2 folder has a sprite sheet with a knight in the same poses. Beyond that, I think only the small versions have any indication of what they're for, and that's in the form of the ninjoe animations in startcart 1.

My guess based on the general feel of all the animations is this. Starting from 1 as the left most in row 5 and going left to right, it looks like 1-2 is idle animation, 3-6 is running,7 is jump, 8 is fall, 9-11 is somehow blocking (makes more sense with a shield), 12 is climbing a ladder (meant to be flipped back and forth), 13-15 is throwing the shield in celebration, and 16 is sliding down a wall

Thanks! That mostly matches what I have except for jump. The frames I was using in format {column range, row}:

{
win  = { '5-7', 6, },
jump = { '4-6', 5, }, -- not looping
fall = { 7,     5, },
land = { 8,     5, },
run  = { '3-6', 5, },
idle = { '1-2', 5, },
}

(In love2d, I use anim8 and these are the values I pass to it.)

I think you’re right about climbing, but I don’t have ladders so I didn’t try that one.

I guess the sliding one is meant for you to rotate it to match your slope.

The blocking is the one that confused me the most, but I guess it makes more sense as a reskin of the knight.
