four different color options — "black-and-white", "cranky", "DMG", and "creamsicle"
it's not a full-color reinterpretation like the HEXA port, but i figured it would be a fun little bonus to at least have something. plus a color wash over top is a relatively super-easy add for a bit of extra charm

Having a partner who is also a game developer is awesome for so many reasons, but I never imagined that #Playdate (and frogs) would play a part in our engagement story. Needless to say, I said yes, and Paco & Lily is now available for free on itch for you to play too! 🥰 tkers.itch.io/paco-and-lily

Here's a look at the different stages of creating the #1bit title screen artwork for Switchboard Shuffle, my #FallingBlockJam entry. I am unable to draw the same face twice so I had to iterate to make sure the art was consistent with the operator's look.
