This is a small prototype I made to practice using Aseprite, an animated sprite editor and pixel art tool, to remake the start screen of 'Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure'. 

The original game by Activision, released in 1994, was one of the first console games I played as a kid so I thought it would be a fun little practice project to remake the start screen in widescreen format using Aseprite to recreate the pixel art and animations.

i cant start

It would be neat to see this be a full-on game

It would! Although, I don't think my pixel art skills are good enough to remake an entire game.Thanks for playing!
