Presenting my spacier version of surt's Space Merc. The run cycle is super basic, but they can aim in 48 directions while running.
Also includes weapon fx and collectible/power ups.
Here you can find some enemies to shoot: https://opengameart.org/content/super-dead-gunner-batch-2

and it didn't turn out even 10% as good as yours. d'oh!
i'll be using your version with my colors when i get back around to viroid planet.
Great work, i used lots of your sprites in a shoot-em-up prototype, hope you'll like it:

@ced30 It looks cool! Very arcadey! I couldn't play it with those controls though.
Technically you should put a link back to the OGA sources in there somewhere, in order to keep to the terms of the license.
Updated the page to link to here :)
Got inspired to make an OGA Sarah version.
After I finally noticed zwonky's comment, it inspired me to add some different colour schemes for the character, and try to make it easier to recolour.
For my own amusement, and because I haven't found time lately to work on anything much new, I brought the final boss of Turrican 2 into the Super Dead Space Merc art set. No license for this guy, obviously. He's only visiting to take part in a mockup. All the other assets in this image are from other subs in the series.
