Hey Gang!

I haven't been completely satisfied with my original sprites for Cryptsmasher, esp. when on a DMG Game Boy.  It looks cool, sure, but in gameplay the darkness could make it rather blurry.  I also wanted Mickey to be able to be more expressive, that's a big part of who he is.

So here is a comparison of a new over-sized Mickey sprite to the originals.  This new style lets me really nail the feel I was going for, and I can have his face separately emoting from his body's movements. It would also make animation more tricky and would also mean reworking much of my existing artwork because the enemies just look like cute widdle guys next to him (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠).  But I think it would be good for me artistically.  The backgrounds are going to get a bit lighter as well, I'll be taking hints from certain old spooky cartoons for that. 😏

Still deciding which way to go,
