I hope you’ve enjoyed the Street Fighter art I’ve been sharing. Today I have some “sort-of” Street Fighter art. It’s SF characters, but in all their Puzzle Fighter cuteness.

Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix is coming out in the next few months for both XLA and PSN (and Steam as well), and I know all you guys and gals are at least as excited about it as I am. (I can’t wait to play it with my wife, who never plays games).

The producer, Robert Hamiter, is extremely busy trying to coordinate the development to get it out the door soon, but he has promised me he’d write up something to share with you as his formal debut on my blog. That should be up by the end of the week.

But in the meantime, I threw together a desktop wallpapers to share with you. It’s got Ryu and Ken, one of the stage backgrounds from Puzzle Fighter (10 points to anyone who tells me which character’s stage it is).

The artwork was done by Udon Comics. They’re re-drawing the character portraits and backgrounds in the game. The game will also feature new gems, gem effects, and an overall facelift. I’ll show a lot more of that later. Also, note that the logo shown in the wallpapers is not final – it will probably be tweaked a bit before the game is out.

I made two sizes: a 16:10 aspect ratio version at 1920×1200, and a squarer version at 1280×1024.

Let me know what you think. I’m totally cool with making some more if you guys are interested. Just let me know what characters you want to see!

-PS – Rey (SF producer) is currently working a post for me that addresses some of the questions and speculations you guys have brought up in the comments and on the forums. Look for that tomorrow.

EDIT: I updated the wallpapers with new versions of the logo.
