Ehhhhh, I don't know, Mit. This whole competition seems very self gratifying for you, considering we have to use your idea from the last competition. I'd strongly consider reworking the theme, as this is, as I said, rather narsasistic.
I'm gonna be totally honest- my original idea was to have people make custom ghosts in the style of Mega Man, and the winner would have their ghost used in Mega Mansion whenever that gets done. but now that I realize that that in itself is over-complicated and self gratifying, I decided to tone it down to just Mega Man because the only really good Mario in Mega Man sprites that I've seen at the time were, well, my own. I know that sounds narcissistic as hell but to be quite honest all of the ones I'd seen were either boring edits or looked WAY too much like Rock. or both. now I'm just super curious to see how other, newer spriters handle that style. and as previously stated, no Luigi because last theme
was Luigi and I'm sure people don't really want to do that again.

not quite sure how this is limited. you can use 6 colors, and you can sprite any Mario character in existence (excluding Luigi).
