When I was in the countryside last month, I sketched a lot, and started pixelling some of those sketches. It's time I finished a few of them.

The bat is a 5 pixel, 4 frame simple little thing.

79 frames.

Edit: New preview. I tried several color reductions (!!!), couldn't decide for one, so I went for greytones. Changed it again, because of the 10k limit.

Edit 2: new main anim, a little faster.

Bonus points if you make the bat eat the moth.

Hey, that's a great edit, thanks a lot!

I'll definitely look at it very closely!

About speed: below 0.03" per frame, you're getting too fast for browsers, systems, even screens...

i think it could still be, like,  double as fast, ...u can improve the lightning...not so easy but managable i guess...what bugs me,for example, is the house on the left , it should fade in the shadow somehow, it stand out too much right now....the the transitions where the light hits the street could be smoothed out....aa doesnt work in some places aswell...

quick EDIT,also reduced to 16colors(some are rly similar, like greys and blues)

Thanks guys!

@ onek: thanks for pointing problems! I guess you're right about speed, I changed it (0.03" instead of 0.04"). I had made this faster version last night but it seemed too fast then. For the rest, I can't say I'm really satisfied with it, I just don't see which way lies improvement, at this point. Maybe this: I might have dithered that light gradient on the walls with a vertical-based pattern instead of horizontal. Didn't even think of it!

neat scenery, but i think the pixelwork could be refined, also aa doesnt work too well,....maybe the bat could be a little faster, ...for me they always seem to be just flashing by

Hey, this is really good.  Great idea and nicely done.  1 or 2 more moths would be nice though.  I know I have tons at my lights.
