Finally got around to updating some background tiles so the Mimic Cave can actually have natural stone walls instead of the same bricks as man-made dungeons.

I updated the shading in dungeon and town tiles to a dithering pattern instead of a solid black color. It should add some more subtlety to the shading. Especially on a CRT.

I wrote this line of NPC dialogue and I instantly have a new character I love to hate.

This anonymous goober in front of the castle is now officially the worst.
