This is amazing.  I applaud you.  

Its pretty hard to do Mimigas *cough cough TOROKO cough cough* sometimes due to their head shape.
at least for me.

Thanks! I actually didn't mind the head shape so much but it took me a while to get those damn legs right (still not entirely happy with them). It's also difficult doing art of Cave Story characters due to the lack of official art, although on the flipside it's kinda cool how much room for interpretation there is.

exactly.   the legs are the other part that's hard.  How are you supposed to know if the legs are like rabbit's legs, or human legs with fur??

and why isn't there a lot of official art?

Well it was quite a small indie game originally, since it was only made by one guy he probably prioritised making them look good as ingame sprites rather than providing a clear image of the whole character. Have seen some more official art floating around for the new Switch port though, it comes with a full manual.

it makes sense for him to do that with the sprites.  As for the manual, I'm going to want to see that later, since I don't have the Switch.  I wonder if a friend would have it.
Do you have a Switch?

I don't have a Switch but Nicalis posted some art from it on Twitter. Looks like a good port though, comes with extra levels and co-op play.
