about the colors... i wanted to match the game as closely as possible. so at first i was really careful to pick colors that matched the blown-up image exactly.

turns out, because of the difference between a luminescent monitor and regular old cotton thread, only the brightest colors look right.

this specific image is a little different, too, because it has so much black.
