Super Dead Space Gunner Merc Redux: Space Junkyard Environment
The idea here is that the planet backdrop remains static and the asteroids drift across it in random directions.

Sweet! I'm gonna have to build a game withthese some time. Any chance for Super Dead Gunner recolors of some of the Space War Man enemies?
It looks brilliant! Looks like you can do almost anything into pixel art. Epic!
@FiveBrosStopMosYT Most of the Space War Man designs won't work that great with the Super Dead Merc set due to style and scale differences.
I have reworked a few of them into this style, and here you go! They are really rather titchy next to the other sprites in this set, but they ought to work OK if you use them well.
Nice, thanks.
