I wanted to make a thread explaining how I put together a complex closeup scene for our point and click adventure game, Castle Dornstein, using @aseprite.org and @makham.itch.io's excellent Pixel Composer.
This scene takes place about midway through the game. Pretty dramatic. Let's take a look ๐งต๐
