Brie Larson is a great choice for voicing one of my favorite video game characters. The fact that her casting will make a few whiny YouTubers cry is just icing on an already delicious cake.

Housemarque's SAROS looks pretty cool. Also, it's obviously a Ratchet & Clank game, but in a cosmic horror setting. Awesome!

I've been wanting a physical edition of Rosalina's Storybook since Super Mario Galaxy was first released. I can't believe they didn't do this sooner.

KPop Demon Hunters is a masterpiece.

Yesterday's challenge on the Saultoons Discord was "moonlight". Looks like my reflection is a little off. I probably should have added something on the horizon line to better separate sky from water. Every mistake is a learning opportunity. I still like how it turned out. #pixelart

#PixelArt challenge on the Saultoons Discord was "Dangerous Mountain". I also used the color palette (superficial35) and the canvas size (92x92) extra challenges. Gave myself one hour. I think I want to practice both mountains and skies a little more.

Mythical. The final prompt. I chose to depict Pandora releasing the previous monsters into the world! Scaling them wasn't too bad. Rotating them was a little harder. Thanks for reading! Stay tuned...I have plans leading up to #Septembit 2025! #pixelart

The penultimate prompt for #Septembit 2024 required combining two previous monsters. I chose to combine my "Plant" pepper with "Ghost" to get...well, a ghost pepper obviously! The flame perspective is a little off, but overall I'm happy with it. #pixelart

For the last three days of #Septembit 2024, the canvas size increased from 32 to 96 pixels square. The first of these prompts was to evolve a previous monster. Remember my poison apple monster? It grew up! #pixelart

This was the last of the smaller canvas prompts. I kind of think this one is a thematic fail. It looks more like television static than anything "abstract". I just didn't have any other ideas. #pixelart #septembit

Day 26's prompt presented me with a bit of a conundrum. Most of my monsters were already "objects", so what to do? Fortunately, my day job brings the endless pain of tolerating JavaScript. Behold, the most terrifying object of all! #pixelart #septembit

I had quite a difficult time getting my ramen monster to work out, but I never wanted to do anything else. I guess it kind of looks less like the ramen is threatening you and more like it's...crocheting at you? Oh well, lol. #pixelart #septembit

The "hobby" prompt stumped me. I struggled to come up with an idea for day 24 more than I did actually designing it once the idea came. I had some difficulty getting the layout of the analog sticks right, but overall I think it works. #pixelart #septembit

Donkey Kong Bananza looks incredible. That direct was like a magician's hat of unending awesome.

Back in my day, sonny, we'd grab our favorite cassette tape and pop it into a "Boombox" to jam. Actually, I recently found out boomboxes that look like this still exist, they just take digital media now. I had fun with this one. #pixelart #septembit #90s

The "Light" prompt monster was another one that just kind of happened as I was painting. A candle became the monster early on in the process before I eventually gave it a power. I guess this one is a light-magic-wielding candle? #pixelart #septembit

Anne Burrell died wtf?!

This is another one I knew where I would go with it from the beginning, and another one where I don't love the final product. It's fine, but I think I could have done better if I hadn't needed to move on. #pixelart #septembit

I have a confession. It wasn't until this prompt that I realized this whole challenge was a sort of Pokemon thing. I kept the concept simple for this one. Inside the crystal ball? Upcoming monsters! #pixelart #septembit

I struggled a lot with the "ghost" prompt. I had no ideas going into it. This was a case of sitting down at the computer and just letting something happen. It's supposed to be a figure coming out of a mirror. Does it work? #pixelart #septembit

Prompt on the Saultoons Discord server today is "galaxy". #pixelart

I had this idea for day 18 from the beginning. It took a bit of trial and error, but I'm incredibly happy with the result. This is the one that made me realize most of my monsters have a bit of an "Earthbound" vibe. It's my favorite. #pixelart #septembit

The lava lamp monster idea came to me fairly early. That said, I did try to do an actual lava monster. It didn't work out, and ultimately I just had to try this. It may be quite the stretch for the prompt, but I really like this one. #pixelart #septembit

For "ice", I originally tried to do an abominable snowman. I didn't like it. Then Saultoons told us all to be creative with our interpretations of the prompts. Thus, my ice cream cone snake monster was born. It's one of my favorites. #pixelart #septembit
