the transparency is added, I'm probably going to remake the legs but about the anti-alising arent the antialising filters forbiden? and i guess it wold higly increase the collors number, making it unable to be in this chalenge.
transparency required. try spreading the legs farther apart, that'd look more like he's climbing (or walking up a wall, at least). also, this might be a good piece to try out some anti-aliasing on.
i mean manual aa. used all the time in pixel art.
