My favorite game as a teen. That is awesome, she did a fantastic job.

Play it today it'll probably still be your favorite. It's so good

I feel old. But I love it

The best part of it is that she didn't use shortcuts, like having black fabric as the background instead of stitches. I love to see people fully dedicated to their project like that.

Holy crap, that's frigging incredible! Very nicely done.

That's awesome! This is one of my favorite games of all time! I have a Metroid pattern I found on Etsy but it looks so involved I haven't gotten around to it yet lol

awesome job, energy Cheerios and all. It's she planning on framing it?

[โ€“] kat_angstrom 2 points 10 months ago

Oh yeah, this is getting framed and will hang next to my desk! :D

I think about that boss battle at least once every month

[โ€“] notsorryforpartying 5 points 10 months ago

This is so cool, I'm mind blown

I know that took a while. Congrats to her!

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That looks so good! I can't even imagine how long that took.

[โ€“] kat_angstrom 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Off and on, it took all of 2023 (though she didn't get much work done over the summer)!

Meanwhile I've been on with my own full coverage for like 2 years and still only stitched three pages. FML.

I believe in you! :D
