When I see such screenshots I wonder why I invested so much effort into the graveyard tileset. Next time I should make it only green and blue squares. For the usability, you know.

You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

I had forgotten that I had debug mode activated sorry for trying to make the game better, ROFL.
Tileset for graveyard is supercool, just as this fog thing...
But, there is a thing such as "playability". And being mad at players they choose playability over a beautiful tileset, which would make you die every 5 minutes if it were on, is kind of opposite of how dev should think, imho D:

I guess that's when you have to consider the role of scripts and add-ons. Since most popular games have them, they are a pretty effective way of customizing the game experience to increase efficiency. I don't blame the dev team for any upset they'd feel over having their beautiful work (which must have taken a lot of effort and skill to pull off) covered up, since I think they try their best to make the game as interesting and fun as possible, and having trees and gravestones and fences just adds to the complexity of the GraveYard. Hairpin turns into the crypt have kill me many many times D:
I am glad that the ultra-view doesn't cover up the collision squares with opaque tiles, then we couldn't even see the nice ponds and rocks :/
Maybe if I'm lvl 99 then I'll go AFK with the normal view on, but for now I'm too noob T-T
Thank you Crush, for your very good job on the GraveYard tileset!
