So, I couldn't get mods to work on my Mac, as such I've done the next best thing to keep me busy during these turbulent times. Just for fun really, thought I'd share. I've re-used a lot of the game's default sprites, so these are technically 'Frankensteins'.
As a fellow Mac user I feel your pain, it is possible to mod the game on Mac but the loader just doesn't work. So you can do homemade modifications but never install other peoples mods.

Thanks Cosmic. Yeah of course I did figure my fire animations were out of line but I never really wanted to add any of that to the game. Just passing time painting pretty pictures as I am a big fan of pixel art despite being far from good. Nevertheless, thanks for the link, maybe I will homebrew something sometime
