My first (real) pixel art. I wanted to start with the limitation of monochrome to see if I could make something semi recognizable.

Superb stuff! The dithered shading on the robot really makes it pop with dimension!

(Or is it an observatory? The black hole at the base could be an entrance, but I was second guessing myself since the scale of the grass would make it very small. Perhaps an entrance for an advanced species of intelligent lemmings who learned not to dive off cliffs? 😄)

Haha. It's meant to be an observatory indeed. 320 x 240 doesn't really lend itself well to scaled grass in monochrome. It's what it is
