Space Monsters: Tyrian Sprites

Inspired by "Reskin Trifang into a Combat Drone MK1", this mod resprites space encounter enemies with a smattering of sprites from classic shmup Tyrian.[en.wikipedia.org] In its current form, only a few enemies have been resprited; the intent is to eventually resprite most space encounter enemies (with the exceptions of Astrofae and maybe Heavy Drones). Turrets will have to wait a while. Similarly to Heavy Drones, turrets are made up of multiple parts, and I'm still learning how to work with and align multi-part monsters.

This is a simple resprite mod, with light animation adjustments when necessary. This will not change the combat capabilities or loot drops of any enemies.

Version 1.0 makes the following changes:

• Trifangle - replaced by U-Ships with spinning animation
  
• Masteroids - replaced by asteroids according to size
  
• Cosmostache - replaced by Carrot Ships

Version 1.1 brings:

• Rustick - Sprite and beam replaced

Version 1.2

• Chiropterror - Sprite replaced

Version 1.3

• Spinemine - Sprite replaced

Shout out to I Want to MECHANIZE That Van for letting me pilot a combat van.

Since this is a resprite, this mod is incompatible with any mod that also resprites space encounter enemies.
