Been too long since I did #pixel_dailies, so here is a frying #pan with an egg in it, sunny side up! Now I'm hungry... 🍳 #pixelart #aseprite

Just learned about #portfolioday! I got into #pixelart about a year ago, and it is becoming a growing part of my #gamedev life! ✍️ Here is a pretty random collection of some of my sprites that I like looking at:
