Nice stuff rhopunzel.

And good to see you are doing the art (-:
I am really curious for the stuff you are going to create. I think tynan already showed some stuff on irc a while ago and it looked nice.

Now, this I call pixel art! I'm usually very careful around pixelart / retro games as many people believe "retro" means "without care". This is simply not the case, and I would even go as far as to say retro gaming cared way more about aesthetics in general and graphics quality - being restricted by technology rather than design. Now that we have way better technology, there is a lot of attention and care in amount of bloom added to your triple-A game (meaning "how can we include 0.05% more bloom to our 99.9% blinding bloom) and rarely real attention to aesthetics (with some great, notable exceptions). "Retro indie" in general go on a crusade to pixelize their games 0,05% more, missing the reason why we really loved this old, beautiful titles. And it wasn't because they were pixelized, it was because every pixel was there for a reason.

But enough of that rant, I now intend to trade all that flattery for that bodytype in game :P

Will player be able to change outfits of colonists?

I would like for example to have colonists with proper color so i know how good is their shooting skill(Random randy have more than 12-15 colonists), it takes sometimes taking time if player train them at shooting range with pistols and isn't sure who should get M16 and who M24/Uzi when Raiders attack.

Yes, you will. It's not working yet, but it will.
