Supplied Sprite

Remember you don't have to use this sprite, you can draw your own!
Deadline
All entries must be in by the 16th of August
Anyone? Three days left...
I started something but won't be able to finish it today. Maybe I'll have it ready by tomorrow, I'm not sure. But you can start a new competition if you like..
I'll extend a couple of days until the 18th, let me know if that's not going to be long enough. Should be good enough for anyone who hasn't started yet to make something quickly... yes?
A pity noone went for this...it's really a good topic...would have given it a shot if I had the time
A little platformer style guy shooting arrows from me:

Nice animation Ben!
(Sorry, OneDollar, but I didn't have time to work on an animation this time)
Yay, the archer hits the apple!
Edit: Added one frame to make it smoother.
Edit 2: Replaced two messed up frames and changed the delays. Firefox still shows the animation in another speed than my graphics program... whatever.

OK, time to wrap this up. Two great entries - Ben demonstrating how to use a few frames to good effect and Matti producing a nice smooth animation (which looks a lot better since you fixed the two frames ;)).
Unfortunately according to the rules I have to pick a winner, and after much deliberating one entry finally edged ahead...

Thanks for the entries guys, and over to you Ben!
Congrats Ben. I hope the next competitions will be interesting too, since I'm regaining my appetite to animate stuff..
Oh, radsauce, I wasn't the only entry :D
Nice work, Matti, thanks OneDollar, and I hope you all come and join in the next comp :)
