Heya, people! I've got some more Mother 1 stuff for ya! I've finished most of the playable characters' sprites and I'm currently working on some NPC stuff.

Nice I've always wanted to do a retexture hack of an old nes game. If I ever did I think it would be DQ4 or DQ2. Will download once you finish it.
