	WIP. Highly inspired from the character selection screen of 'The Chaos Engine' by The Bitmap Brothers (same palette, same art style). I probably won't have much time to improve it. At least one problem to solve before being able to submit it: I need to reduce the number of color used, as I forgot to take this constraint into account (28 colors used while the maximum allowed colors is 21...).

	*Originally posted by MasterSky* are we allowed to use other people's palettes? Of course. It is nice to mention where it comes from in the description but that's a courtesy not a law or must.
