The character is also massive in relation to the tile sizes, this could probably be toned down a lot.\n\nGraphics are nice and cohesive overall. The tile appear is a nice touch and serves as a fantastic \"fog of war\". I do wish there was a better way to visually determine which tiles were passable; often I'd get trapped without realizing it.\n\nGameplay wise it works as expected.
