Damn, you really went all out on this! Not only did you not give up, but you overcame and made the nicest piece of pixel art to date! Hope this year goes better for you!

Thanks! I had to reach back and go through the pico school 2 demo to see what sort of backgrounds would feel at home for the looping bit. It was originally going to be an outdoor scene. Then I figured it’d be more moody in a lonely corner of the subway or something.
I see this as both a statement about your personal overcoming of obstacles but also as a powerful statement about Newgrounds itself, hope you don't mind me co-opting your very personal work Luis!
A break dance routine inspired by your earlier personal one? Or maybe that one was based upon this? Or both? The motion's amazing. And once you get tired of that you can start following the water droplets from the pixelated pipes, the headbumping pigeon bops and runaway motions or ghettoblaster in the background.
Wall design looks all dope too.
And on the Never Give Up note: he just gets up and starts going too. Over and over and over. The perseverance was sure way worth it. ;) Props. Happy Pixel Day! Good stuff.
