I prefer hqx since it preserves the look of the pixel art without attempting to make it look better.

I've seen worse, much worse.

I didn't even see "kamikaze drone" until I zoomed in x4.

I've seen people bend over backwards, while standing, and grab their ankles. You guys need to stretch more.

I feel there's too much emphasis on the legs in this, but I still like it.

Does this really need 84 colours?

I'm having a hard time reading the yellow sprite even zoomed in, but I don't think this isn't a big issue because of the restrictions.

This is one of the few mock-ups that looks like a real game so it got my vote.

Camtasia Studio is the best.

I got started on this challenge way too late. Something's better than nothing though I guess.

The legs look too short (or the torso too long) for these proportions. I like the colour palette though.

I say it'd look nicer by itself with a transparent background.

It'd make more sense if the sign was in the front, not behind the blocks.

I saw this as a random pixel, and then it exploded just as I was clicking on it. Definitely wasn't expecting it either.

What a suitable game over screen. There's no way a slime could make that jump.

It's too abstract for me to see a face, but I like the details put into it nonetheless.

Love the unfocused background and the attention given to smaller detail, gives it a real touch.

Something very strange is going on with his left leg, but the rest of the animation is excellent.

 My first attempt at the weekly challenge was a girl cyclops, but she didn't turn out as pretty as yours.
