Oops, I preferred the pale one. Looks a lot more like an arcade sprite

I'm sorry to say that I believe that the pale one is better.
Need a bit more suturation perhaps, but it's more readable at the moment glance.
The highlight on the contrasted one guide the eyes on a shape we're not use to see and it take a bit more time for the brain to decrypt that that's a bird.

you dont always need to get more saturated with shading. minecraft uses very grey shades and it looks awesome

I think the brighter one suffers from contrast. the dark lines look like pixels more than folds feathers and edges

Also use a better colorspace like OKLAB/CIELAB those have more perceptually uniform gradients so your colors won’t actually get perceptually brighter if you switch to hue even tho there are still issues

Thief bird = stealthy bird = bird doesn't want to get spotted easily = discreet plumage (natural/artificial) + discreet outfit = non vibrant colors = pale color palette
For other instances hue shifting looks to be a good trick tho 👍
