i am a die-hard member of antifa. whatever the opposite of a nazi is, i am that thing.
from what i can see, the impetus of the submitter here was to make an allusion between the new twitter "x" logo and the version of the swastika that was made infamous by the nazis and continues to be used by right-wing white nationalists and neonazi organizations to this day.
while i can only see bad coming from this in the long and short term, as this can only become a political argument where noone wins, i think you are personally out of pocket calling either MedicineStorm or Joe Strout "nazi scum." i don't know Joe Strout, and can only go by what they have said so far, and the clear political stance he is making clear by comparing the Elon Musk logo to the Nazi logo, seems a pretty obvious indication he is a progressive. i know MedicineStorm personally, and i can assure you that she is NOT a nazi.
i think you are casting aspersions in this instance where they are not warranted.
at any rate, i see no way this can continue to be discussed in any way without violating the existing rules and norms on OGA about talking about politics.
i think the details read better with the outline, but it really depends more on how it looks in game -- do the sprites read well against the background?
i think it looks great! the palette works well, atleast for the tiles. and you can always expand a pallete with compatible colors. i've attached a simple example of an expanded pallete :)
as for whether sticking to a palette or just winging it as a beginner, people will have different opinions. for me, pixel art in a retro style is all about limitations, and having a palette is a good limitation. but if it's too limited, i am not averse to expanding the palette for my own needs.

very effective use of small pixel art! the details read very clearly, and the color choices are very nice :)
definately could be useful!
it looks great, and showing your process is very useful as well :)

withthelove also has a nice PixelPaletteTool that can be used to easily try out swapping your pixel art to different palettes. https://withthelove.itch.io/pixelpalettetool
yah no numbers or special characters, i forgot to put that in the description :(
here's a few screenshots. unlit scene, with faked goraud shading in unreal engine.
ignore the teddy bear monkey character, i already had a character controller set up in my project
your textures definately capture the n64 vibe well
awesome dude. i am a lover of the old n64 style
im gonna fire up a project and make an unlit scene with your textures and use goroud shading, just to see what they look like in a scene :)
i am all in on more n64 style stuff my friend! keep it coming :0
