I get such deep nostalgic, emotional vibes from this! I'm from Germany, but I visit the Netherlands every year since I was a kid, usually the Bergen / Alkmaar region, and also Hoorn when I was younger. You really captured the spirit within so few pixels perfectly! I absolutely love it.

Hi all! This pixel art animation is 320x200px with 40 hand drawn frames. I doubled the resolution for viewing purposes. I hope it brightens your day <3

I'm getting throwbacks to old PC/Amiga/C-64 RPGs. It's really beautiful.

This looks like something out of an old pc game called The Patrician. Nice work!

This is perfectly balanced for animations- leaf stuff, bird stuff, water stuff, and the silhouetted boat in the foreground

Well, this is clearly what the harbour in my city looked like a few centuries ago, for sure.

Here's some modern images of it.

Now tell me that doesn't look similar. Did you dreamwalk into Turku to check out our harbour and then make this gif? ;>

Hey kiitos for the images! Interesting. If you check my post history before commenting you'll see it's based on Hoorn in Netherlands <3

Ah, yes, I thought there might be quite a few harbours that look like this, but thw Castle instantly made me think of ours, obviously. :D

Great work!
