8-bit cupid climbing heart platforms

Tags
Retro pixel art digital illustration tailored for a vertical 2:3 card format. A tiny 8-bit cupid is flying upwards through a vertical gaming level filled with floating heart-shaped platforms. The character has a determined but cute expression, clutching a pixelated love letter. The art style uses a strict pixel grid and a vibrant, limited color palette. The vertical orientation captures the 'climb' of the level, with a large shimmering heart at the very top. The background is a simple, dark blue star-field. The aesthetic is nostalgic, fun, and purely romantic.
