I was planning on updating the blog with a comparison a week. I’ll be in transit this Friday to Kyoto so this week’s comparo comes a little early. Amaya’s new version of King obviously has more detail so now you can see a bit more of a frown as well as his mouth and whiskers. It still uses the original palette, we just have more pixels to work with. He definitely looks a lot closer to the in-game portrait now.

Ah, MUCH more detail in the newer model compared to that of Toroko’s transition. Awesome job, Pixel!
And finally, he has a robe like he does in the end credits!

King looks a lot better now.
I think he looked a bit too pissed off in the original sprites.

Oh, also, would the next comparison happen to be Quote? The videos posted so far don’t really do the art justice.

I saw this in programming and shouted “Yes!” in the middle of class, thankfully the only person who heard me is also a cave story fan. Looking forward to more updates! (I like how you kept the same colour scheme)

I wasn’t too big on the Toroko sprite, she looked too chubby, but this one looks great!
Keep going, you guys are great!
