A Freebie Out of Curiosity

The other day, when I asked mappy Handrick if his name is that of the 1983 Namco game, he denied so, and told me that it was just his childhood nickname.

But then I remembered how easy it was to die in the game - well at least on the NES/Famicon version. All you have to do is to wait two seconds. If you don't move you're done; a pink cat will get to you. I think the reason why I remembered it so much is that the normal music and the dying music blend it so well in that case that it is like one melody. Back then we would start and restart the game to hear the mouse dying with the music.

That was a fun idea for an animated gesture, so I made one! (^ ^)

Here it is, for free.
