Most likely not going to add the roof shingles for the sake of my sanity. I am really liking how the base is coming out so far, though.

Days barely started, and I feel wiped out. Here’s a brief look at the current version of my Luigi sprite. #pixelart

happy to say that i helped with toad and toadette's sprites! here's some of their alt palettes from the game
I RELEASED A NEW GAME!!! It's that Mario Bros. online multiplayer game that I've been sitting on for like 3 years; Mario Bros. Mayhem! gamejolt.com/p/mario-bros...
making some goddamn BULLSHIT because nintendo decided to effectively turn toadsworth into gaster
I just had to do a double take, apparently I reached 1.4k followers? Neat. I appreciate you all very much, and I also thank you all for putting up with my rambling. lol
Solid edit I did of Peach’s Castle from Super Princess Peach to look more like it did in Mario Run. I am very happy with it. #pixelart.

I can honestly see my character sheets having more hope of a complete public release compared to my environment/background stuff. There’s so much I want to do, but so much I feel limited by. Granted, I’m not gonna stop trying, regardless of setbacks.
I’ll get around to posting what I have for the solo hammer sprites so far (they’re cool and based off the M&L hammer as you can see) sometime later. It’s probably not going to be much yet, but it’ll definitely open up some good possibilities in the future.
Hell yeah
I forget, did I ever repost the Superstar Saga styled Plumbinator my itself? If not, here’s a repost focusing solely on it. #pixelart
Is it sad to say I’ve grown to dread my birthday the older I’ve gotten? I used to look at them as a personal milestone for myself, but now? It just reminds me of how fast things are going, and how much time I’ve had needlessly wasted. I wonder if this’ll ever go away at some point?
Work schedule is going to make spriting a bit difficult for the next day or so. I’ve been checking out TSR on mobile in the meantime, and I’ve been finding more suitable materials to use for future backgrounds.
I’m going a bit ahead of myself, but I’m trying to see if I can adapt a World 8-related BG next. It’s a spin on a pre-existing one, but with more focus on the lava land motif. I already have some good material to work with.
Wanted to do a mockup with a test background.
With how good these background turned out, I might try to revisit that attempt awhile back from when I tried to translate that one piece of Kotabe artwork (portraying W1-1) into sprite form.
The sky isn’t custom (it’s edited off the original Toad Jump sky variants), but WOW, everything else came out pretty good! Funny enough, I had to do two separate shifts for the night, unlike the sunset version.
Another fun thing about figuring out the new BG is that it allowed me to mess around with Aseprite’s hue shifting tools. I cooked up a very decent looking sunset pallet for this background. Figuring out how to do night pallets may still be a real pain.

Looking back, I still don’t regret redoing everything. The new sprites are nice & vibrant, plus they give me more room for experimenting with conversions and facial expressions. I’ll continue to have some struggles, but I’ll always find a good workaround after some hard thinking.
(Repost) Super Mario and the Sacred Bells DX (concept) scrapped stuff. I don’t think these sprites were bad at all, but the newer version ended up being way too good to be a one-off. I do think Toad’s sprites are the only ones that can be salvaged. #pixelart #SuperMario
