The House of the Dead PC ingame & custom Cursors

PLEASE READ, FOR PETE'S SAKES!

This stuff comes from a game, I made nothing really.
They use a 64pixels canvas, ergo to see them right
you'll need to resize the cursor first :

On Windows10&11

write "size" in the start bar,
click "Change Cursor Size",
set the slider to 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, or 15,
then apply a cursor set made from these!

On Windows 7 & prior

go to "run",
type regedit in the window's text bar,
the Registry Editor opens,
go to the directory
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Cursors
(you can copy-paste it in the window's top bar),
right-click on the "CursorBaseSize" value,
left-click on "Modify", then check "Decimal",
& change the value from 32 to 64 or better yet 96 or 128.
This change will apply on the next restart.

SO...

I'm writing this on the 1st day of November!
I wanted to upload these yesterday -
it was hallowe'en, aka all-hallows'-eve,
& they might've fit with the contemporary
understanding of the occurrence...
alas, tempvs fvgit, & I'm posting 'em today instead.
Oh well today's all-hallows proper, & tomorrow the day of the dead, that ought be good enough.~

The PC port of the arcade light-gun classic,
"The House of the Dead", has 3 mouse cursors :
-Player 1 & 2 crosshairs
-The skeletal hand from the menues, with a click animation
To those add non-mouse stuff :
-The score screen name-input caret
-Sliders are much like a real-life ruler cursor,
we could extend it to the audio options slider
& its yellow, high-lighted variant.
Includin all the above, AND implementing
the hand's animation as a separate thing,
we have a total of 7 cursors, alas all very redundant.

I had to seize other UI graphics,
& turn THOSE into cursors.
I know, it's weird, bold, pretentious, cursed, sinful...
but devs make cursors for their roles.
If they don't need 'em, they won't waste time&effort (they're professionals).
THUS, an average Joe is to get his hands dirty
& turn other stuff into cursors for a complete set,
or one at all, in order to honor said game
with something usable.
Of course, I'll name libertine cursors accordingly.

All the customs are marked thusly,
deciding what feels the most faithful
is a choice that's up to you.

Righto, kudos!
Don't forget the cursor resize!

Soul cakes are a thing, you may
consider 'em for the next halloween!

UPDATE S.1 BIS!
Whatös new Þ
-MINOR FIX on the hand animation!
Frames 2 & 3 had some stray, warm-brown, background pixels...
-Added finger-tapping .ani alts for the dotted WiBs.

That's it...
weird anectode of the day :
yesterday morning i took a stink-bug outside,
and it BIT ME! What? And only then I found out
they have long, proboscid-like mouths,
not unlike butterflies, tipulæ, mosquitoes...
guess it was more like a puncture.
