Still learning pixel art, am a complete beginner. There are some issues with the shape and the animated is limited but here it is:

When you post something here, and you want to hear a critique, you have to say what you want to be critiqued (style, animation, specific part of image etc.) so it will be easier to comment on your work. :)

For me, the most strange thing is, that you use both pixels and gradient for your highlights. Gradient or soft edge brushes can't be used in pixel art. Highlight on hair should have shape of the hair, not just random pixels that looks like dandruff. Also I'm not sure if in-game character shoots in game or trough glass of arcade machine.

There's a weird perspective warp :
If you look at the position of the feet compared to the arcade machine, the player is standing on the front-right side of the machine.
If you look at the hands, the player is using the front-left controls.

Thanks for the posting advice and listing what needs fixing. I see now the perspective is wrong.

I will correct these, only been doing pixel art for about a month  so I expect a lot of errors.

Grateful for the feedback
