And here is a character for another game, in the idle/tired loop.

NOTE: Timing between frames was not "polished" yet, they all take the same time (200ms), which doesn't work as it was supposed to.
This makes it look too fast, instead of having 2 phases, speed up and slow down.

The shoulders/upper arm also need some extra movement.
The belt, needs one extra pixel of movement too.

Nice. I like this one best, the shading on the lower jaw works. I never really nailed skulls, I always felt the need to give them 2 nostrils and if it's 16 pixels wide it's difficult to avoid a cartoony appearance.

I've been working on some retro graphics myself, trying to get my game idea off the ground.

Digging through old stuff, here's a shmup mock-up made for someone on Twitter but don't think it was ever used.
