Update on Explorers of Alpha

By Mond in the SkyTemple Discord server

I've been silent about Alpha for a week, and that for 3 reasons:
- the bigger reason is that Pokemon Unbound 2.0 has been released a week ago. If you don't know, I'm also part of Unbound team as a team builder and as a tester. The last release has taken a lot of my time since my work has more impact on the community and I always want feedback on everything I do
- IRL has taken a big place in my life lately (Christmas mostly)
- the feature I've been preparing is mostly finished and is very big, as a result I need time to complete it, plus I need to write some code for it

Expect some updates soon™️, where soon stands as “new year update” prolly

Sprite for Sans

Shared by Piksidust in the SkyTemple Discord server. A previous version of the portraits where shown the previous week.

Merry Christmas Eve!
Enjoy Sans funny bone man emotions, walking in a circle, and shrugging in a circle.
Here are the updated portraits with the color pallet I used for the sprite. I didn't change too much but they look a lot better now. Feel free to use them! If it's a public mod, make sure to credit me as Piksi!
