Hello, everyone!
Today we bring you the lantern version of Elise's walking sprite in all of its 8 direction glory!

Hello, everyone! 🌙
This time we bring you the night version of the front of Elise's home.
Achieving a night time effect is surprisingly more difficult than it seems. This version comes with no lighting effects from within the home - those will be added later!
For now, we leave you with a purely moonlit scene! What do you think? 🕯️
