Release candidate.
- the backpack makes zero sense in terms of size and straps. But at least it makes the sprite more acceptable to the player's eye.
- The character's face in the front cycle is too narrow.

Is there a question somewhere here? You want c&c?
I think especially the sideview is great, really fluent. Although the tip of his hair (the leftmost black pixel) should bounce a little up and down for maximal effect :)
When it comes to the N/S views, I think one of two corrections is necessary: Either a) bring his feet together a bit, or b) make him move slightly side to side.
I think making the backback bounce slightly could add a little bit of life. Looks a bit too stiff without any movement.
