Obviously took heavy inspired from Damaged-Coda6669/Birdie's Revenge Dash art piece that he did.
That piece is still my favorite to this day and I have the guilty pleasure of going back just to stare at it.. Like hell, the bat that Dr. Candypop sometimes carry around ALSO have a bat just like that (again inspired by him).
For the effects, I used photomosh.. It's a very helpful tool
