One of the sprites that you&#8217;d have seen in October would have been Jason Voorhees, inspired by the fact that NECA went crazy and made a SDCC exclusive glow-in-the-dark figure colored like the NES sprite. The weird part is that someone e-mailed me to ask if I had a Jason sprite without knowing I&#8217;d planned to do one. Unfortunately, I ran out of time, so I didn&#8217;t do it. Then I decided to check and see if there was a Friday the 13th before the year was over and, sure enough, there is. So instead of just having Jason show up on Halloween, he&#8217;s here on his own special day. If that wasn&#8217;t enough, I&#8217;ve got new sprites of other hockey mask-wearing characters, including a new Rick Taylor sprite. This is Splatterhouse&#8217;s 25th anniversary year, so things just worked out just right.<\/p>\n<p><center><IMG SRC=\"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/ss\/gfxgen_2013-12-13_384x224.png\"><\/center><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"gfxgen_index.php\">GFX Generators<\/a><br \/>\nNew Characters: Jason Voorhees (pt. 3 sprite, two palettes), Casey Jones (TMNT), Ninja Gaiden enemies (the hockey mask-wearing enemy with multiple palettes)<br \/>\nUpdated Characters: Rick Taylor (new scratch-made Splatterhouse 1 standing pose), Jennifer (improved sprite, brown palette)<\/p>\n<p>Custom Sprites &#8211; Splatterhouse&#8217;s Rick and Jen were added to the <a href=\"customsprites.php?g=namco\">Namco page<\/a>, Jason was added to the new <a href=\"customsprites.php?g=movies\">Movie-related gallery<\/a>, Casey was added to the <a href=\"customsprites.php?g=tmnt\">TMNT page<\/a> and that hockey mask guy from Ninja Gaiden was added to the <a href=\"customsprites.php?g=tecmo\">Tecmo page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><IMG SRC=\"sprites\/sor2_skate_windmill-anim.gif\"> Breakin&#8217; News<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>The U.S. Playstation store has quite a few Capcom games and items on sale on the cheap tip.
