i dithered for a /long/ time.  couldn't think of a good sprite to do anything with, and then, while doing a google search, i stumbled upon keepsake.  which i'd dimly played.  anyhow.  it struck me that i was looking for a game with a wolf or a bear in it that i could use to do my sprite and...zak was a wolf.

so, here's zak, in cga from the nineteen eighties.  before his voice could frustrate everyone.



and magnified to twice the size.  palette's in the lower right hand corner.  here, you can see that i was trying to keep his markings as much the same as those in the actual game from a few years ago.  with this few pixels, it's tricky, but fun to try.

i've sort of been reading and sort of been following along with the spirte game for the last bit.

here's mine.  in all it's terrible glory, i call it:

panda with ball.



100x73x9 colours, plus a tenth one for the yellow background.

and a double sized version...
