I have never done any sort of modding, or really even pixel art– but I wanted to add someone new while keeping the essence of Alex the way that he was so here is my version of Alex! The screenshots are just snippets of the different portraits with his reg outfit, winter, and then a jean jacket alt for the sports jacket.

My privilege is unfortunately showing, because it didn’t occur to me until now that we don’t have a male poc romance option. Holy shit that sucks.
I love this version of Alex, he looks so cute. You did a good job!
Should we have more people of color in the game, yes…. Should we type cast the one guy that had an abusive dad and was abandoned by his parents to his grandparents, that is also really good at sports and not the brightest, be that person of color, following a very harmful stereotype… Maybe not?
His hair is so well done!
I like this version better
I as a poc would definitely want more poc characters especially bachelors and bachelorettes but I think this is such tokenism to me
Edit: We as a poc deserve better representation than just a design edit of a white character
i really like his blue jacket ver and the hair, good job!
Bro went from farm boy to GQ model lmao
Ohhhh I adore this take on Alex!
WAIT HOW
Oh I love this so much! He’s so cute!
Gosh I love him! With this format, he reminds me a lot of Dunk from *Date Everything* as well—those two could be twins. Thanks for making a good POC version!! Maybe there’s a modder somewhere that would cooperate with you in getting this out, cause MAN am I interested.
This is the first time I’ve ever been attracted to Alex
This is honestly why I like Coral Island more than Stardew cus of the lack of POC
This is amazing!!!!
I’d recommend doing something for George and Evelyn as well so it has better cohesion.
I like this a lot! Alex was the first chatacter I romanced (male farmer) and I think this is so cute! Great job.
His hair is great. In one man’s opinion, you should think about doing a Maru redesign with better hair. I think you’d really do her justice.
i love this!
Your Alex is fantastic. Nice work! ^^
Yall this gives my heart Static Shock vibes!! The hair !! <3
