I've got six things on my mind... and this sprite is one of them

D’you ever lie awake at night and think about how, with only a few points in space of differing shape, size and limited colour, one can basically conjure up an entire guy?

I often find myself daydreaming about particular videogame sprites while going about my day. A whole universe of lil fellas occupy the inside of my brain, biding their time, waiting for just the right moment to worm themselves from my head straight into my heart

maybe one holds an impressive stance…

or a satisfying form factor and colour scheme…

or a vaguely threatening (yet endearing) aura…

or just a certain je ne sais quoi

what are some of your favourite videogame sprites and what is it about them that ignites such passion from within?

Oh yeah, huge shoutout to whoever sprited the original versions of these things. They nailed the assignment. They look like they shimmer like jewels, and the connection sprites are incredibly readable at all resolutions.

Particularly a fan of how connected puyos would stare at one another:
