@Harmonic: The priestess spell effect does not seem to be pixel art. Not exactly sure on the process used on it, though. I can't tell for sure since the whole thing is jpged, but if it isn't pixel art, I would replace it with one that is. If it already was, then that is nicely done then.
Who cares about winning? (okay, I do, me wants teh moneyz!} But I may not win anyway since lots of great ppl are in, still gotta play it out :D

Anyway, some progress (hope it is okay to show progress :P):

Yeah, trying it for fun or for practice is good, even if you think you won't win. Besides, $25 isn't all that much anyway. It'd still be good to get critiqued on your piece, and to simply just try one out. Who knows, maybe you'll do a better job than you think you would? So even if you aren't a pixel artist, it'd be at least a good experiment.
Yep, plus, with what you learn on this one, you might win in the future :)

BTW nice to see you here Ocean, was missing you posting here actually :)

It is.
I'd like to see more people trying out pixel art and stop saying I'm not an artist I can't do this. I was at that point before until I started, pixel art is really fun if people give dedication at it. IMHO, I just started last year, I think people will be better than me if they start now and practice constantly.


I started yesterday but I can't set my mind on the scenery, too ... many...ideas...

I am in.

MODIFY: YOU ADDED ME REALLY, REALLY QUICKLY. That is hella creepy.


Also, the rules didn't say anything about animation. I'm assuming that means that it's A-OKAY to make a .gif? I don't really want to, but at the same time....

It's fine. Making an animated file will come with it's own set of consequences; but if you're willing to work through them, by all means. :]

I used Yukari Yakumo of Touhou Project, I was having too many thoughts in the end I drew a moon and a gap so I settled with her :P

This. I always think it's hilarious how I can have this crazy awesome picture drummed up in my head, and then when I try to draw it, it looks like crap haha.
Damn, you people work fast. Mine is taking forever and then some. >.>

Pretty good though, both of you.

21 colors, this is mine. Too lazy to take more time, plus got a lot of work/schoolwork/tests coming up.

Same here. These all look great especially yours harmonic.
A P-A contest yeah!
I'm participating. ^^

(I've helped making a P-A and game design website, but it's in French so I don't think it would help people here ^^").

@All: great work!

EDIT:

I'm done!
One entire day of work (many hours just for the man in blue). =_=


I recommend zooming on it, it looks better. xD

I have used 21 colors, just the same as Ocean! Pretty funny. ^^
It was hard for me because I decided to use the same colors as for my game:
