I'm trying out the same approach I used with #ToxicTomb for the potential update to #MutantsFromTheDeep: limiting myself to 16 colors taken from the Master System palette.

I know that SMS can display more than 32 colors, but a limited palette gives each game its own mood.

It's #mermay, so here's Marila, my mermaid oc. She fights shark riders with her machine gun to protect her sisters and temple.

#MutantsFromTheDeep (2021) is a freeware game for PC and MSX computers. Info and download here -> locomalito.com/games/mutant...

I remember I was thinking about this while making one of the endings for #MutantsFromTheDeep

But the scenario was a lot easier in that case, because they just stay in their respective worlds but near the shore.
