The coolest sprite work?

RayForce is a true beauty among sprite scaling shmups. Starting around 4:00 into this video, the second level is an absolutely fantastic showcase of all that. The space battle above the corrupted Earth is one of the best examples of depth in a shooter EVER. Yes, even including ones made with 3D models. It’s gorgeous.

I love the use of color on so many sprites by Capcom. Bold color usage and strong light and shadow contrast make for some truly incredible looking animations.

Wow Neon Inferno looks gorgeous! Adding to my wishlist. Thanks @Turbo Kid!
I always felt The Misadventures of Flink from the legendary Psygnosis has some of the best sprite work for a Genesis/Megadrive game.

Chrono Trigger spritework is beatiful, impressive for the SNES system and one of my personal favorites

And the Sonic Advance/Sonic Battle GBA sprites too, so cool and iconic, also nostalgic because reminds me the old Sonic flash games and animations like Super Mario Bros Z and Final Fantasy Sonic X
