Thank you! I'm glad you liked the idea. I think I'm most proud of that, of all things.
As for the inconsistency, I drew the chibi version first without intending to animate it. And then I thought, what kinda platformer game doesn't have animated characters? So I spent the entirety of the penultimate day drawing frame by frame. Then, the last day came and I had to do a lot of game breaking bug fixes so I didn't have time to make an idle animation.
I could do it now, but it feels a bit like adding entirely new content after deadline. Also the chibi version is consistent with the other NPCs, and I don't want to draw them again. (╥﹏╥)
