Dear Ludum Darerers,<\/p>\n

Are you tired of programmer art? Don’t you hate making sprites? Well, here’s the Solution: Pixel Extravaganza! PEx is an application which creates EVERY possible sprite EVER possible with 4×4 Pixels! All you have to do is press SPACE when you see one you want! PEx will save 3 different sizes of the selected sprite and put it in the \\sprites folder! :O If you want a completely different sprite, press ENTER to randomize all colours! If you think it’s going to slow or to fast just press the UP or DOWN arrow key to adjust the speed! Marvellous isn’t it?<\/p>\n

Okay, the shouty-add part is over. Now a little more serious. I found Dr Petter’s SFXR<\/a> which can be used to create any retro game sound you want. So I thought…Mmmm, can’t that be done with sprites too? Well, the answer is obviously no.\u00a0 Still, this is what I made and I wanted to share it just for the fun of it’s ridiculousness. Maybe it could be used to inspire graphix or ideas for a Mini-LD? But mostly it should be used to laugh at and then be forgotten again! ^^<\/p>\n
