When doing mugshots, sometimes, it's a combination of both my initial sketch and my sprite.

I'm committed to his ridiculous head shape.

That frizzy hair is easier to draw by hand than in pixel art.

While Pinafore is influenced by '80s characters, Sam is influence by '90s characters. It might be hard to tell any difference.

The only things that carried over from the original sketch for little Timmy are his dapper outfit (which kinda makes him look like Richie Rich) and Astro Boy's nose.

Adding that bit of chub from the sprite made his face even more like Astro's.

Still working on it.

There's definitely treasure around here, but it'll still take a while 'til we reach it.

If you've had your fill of games where you play as elephants and blue hedgehogs, this might be for you.

...and I haven't advertised this the best, but it's coming.

I made an up-to-date trailer for Terry's Treasure Trouble!

You know, in case it wasn't clear what kind of game this is.

I'm gonna give this game an animated billboard.

Yes it IS unusually low-res, just like real billboards.

You know how some anime shows like to turn characters into chibis for over-the-top reactions?

Normally, I'd avoid doing this, since that's like a Disney Princess doing a wild take. Since Sam is more like a '90s anime character, she gets a free pass.

Mr. Redford, the bald guy, is a lawyer and co-owner of WarrenWorks, a tech giant.

Samantha is a doctor (not a nurse) and Timmy's godmother.

Little Timmy is the last surviving Warren.

The Warrens owned Pinafore, and she took care of their summer home.

If you're worried about whether or not a setting doesn't feel realistic in a platform game's camera angle, treat it like it's a stage play. They're never that realistic, but we buy into them all the same.
