The fanart might also be held back by the game's strengths. Its really strong visual style, and the fact that point and click in the drawer is less interesting gameplay-wise than any conversation with Saeko. Talking to Saeko turns out to be the centerpiece even if it's still profoundly underexplored. Pixel artists aren't going to want to become giantess artists and vice versa. Thematically pixel art is typically about precise minimals to convey all subjects, mood, and information with a limited color palette focusing mostly on bright hues and bright-dark contrasts. Visual overload in pixel art is normally an overload of discrete details. Giantess art tends to aim for an overwhelming impression of one particular subject, typically by hiding the full view and using perspective, foreshortening, extensive shadowing and conveying the impression of surface textures. Most giantess pixel art is in the form of very brief animation, and very hard to pull off.
The fact that the game uses very mismatched art styles feels really intentional. It's a lot like looking for giantess art back in '08 really felt. You'd wind up going down the gts2/links or jinja-modokai aggregators looking at all these photo-collage collections on personal geocities pages with overcooked css and sometimes animated background wallpapers. Maybe you'd be lucky and giantessgarden would be hosting a doujin on par with Marie the Cyclone right next to some unrelated western art or some random nabs off of defunct giantess oekaki boards that week. Nothing really looked like Saeko at all but at the same time Saeko looks like the way you might feel after you walk away from the desktop. So translating the visual style will feel frustrating to a fanartist because you can't translate earlyweb schizocore to any unified coherent style.
