Pixel's Quest to the Top

Pixel art8 panels· started by @theo_sketches

“Pixel the cat lives inside an old video game and dreams of reaching the very top level.”

Maintain consistent 8-bit sprite dimensions and color count per scene. Use dithering patterns where needed. Keep movement animations to 2-4 frames maximum. Preserve the nostalgic early-80s arcade look throughout all panels.
