Description: Here is my Acro boss for your liking.
Reason of removal:
I would like some major aesthetical improvements on this submission.
I am not talking about the graphics - those are just fine, and besides, even if they looked bad, it shouldn't be a valid reason to remove this.
However, by aesthetical improvements, I mean for the most part the user-friendliness.
This package lacks all user-friendliness, namely:
The actual removal reason: Where's the readme? Or, if not a readme, a description that tells you what is what?
For a package of this size, I would prefer to know what Acro can be killed by, and what it is supposed to spawn.
Some minor removal issues (I would never remove a sprite solely for these):
Code Hit_Counter = $1528 ; The hit counter for any sprite that takes lots of hits to kill
Invuln_Timer = $1564 ; The RAM address for Acro's stun duration
If you make defines like these, make sure they are actually used. Inside the sprite you are using $1528,x and $1564,x but not through the define.
Furthermore, the interaction with the tail is sloppy. The player can go straight through it, which, I think, isn't supposed to happen.
Please fix this up - it's always great to have some bosses submitted to the site. But every sprite requires user-friendliness.
