hey pixel artists, I just released my first Aseprite theme!
It's a pretty neutral one that started out as something I made for myself, but I also can't live without it at this point so I figured I'd share!
I hope you like it, too 🎨

All aboard the art train! Thanks for the tag, Daku!

Pixel art illustration of the three female leads from Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! striking poses. They are against a colourful, somewhat abstract background that suggests a setting sun. Greyscale pixel art illustration of a devil character done in a style reminiscent of rubberhose animation. He is standing idle, sparkles circling around him. Pixel art illustration of a woman with mothlike features sitting on the windowsill of a paneless window, her legs dangling outside, and head turned back towards the viewer. Outside there are some silhouettes of houses visible with lit up windows, and a small but eerie moon in the sky. The woman has bright green highlights in her eyes matching one of the colours the moon is rendered in. Pixel art illustration depicting Phoenix Wright from the Ace Attorney franchise as Adam from Michelangelo's painting The Creation of Adam against a plain, blue background.

I've been reworking all of the symbol icons from Luck be a Landlord, planning to release a mod when they're all done.

It's been such a fun project! I appreciate how moddable the game is, and what could be better than pixeling little 12x12 icons?
an image showing low-resolution, colourful pixel art icons arranged in rows. Misc: beer, lightbulb, flower, gift, anchor, candy. Marine: pearl, goldfish, bubble, bar of soap, jellyfish, sand dollar. Fruit: apple, banana, banana peel, cherry, pear, strawberry. Humans: archaeologist, billionaire, bounty hunter, cultist, gambler, toddler. Animals: cat, crab, crow, bee, magpie, mouse. Gems/ore stuff: coal, diamond, emerald, sapphire, ruby, amethyst. Misc/meta: Confirm, dud (red X), coin, hp (heart), removal token (trash bin), reroll token (green arrow)
