Yeah, that's the sort of upgrade that will draw in new players. Very nice work. Hope the rest of the maps get the same treatment.
Am I the only one who suffers under eye strain after staring at the moving lava for a bit? <_<; Eh, maybe that has nothing to do with the map. I should probably go back to bed~
I really like it. The lava in the bottom right is a bit off though. it flows more like a lava lamp than actual lava and the edge of the terrain down there is pretty jagged. Other than that I really do love how it looks. Any plans to add sound effects? The visual effects sort of scream for sound accompaniment. i.e. Bubbling and steaming of the lava, an echo, the sound of fire near the top of the screen (where the light flares up every so often).
Pretty sure it is the 1 font per shrine map that's being revamped. Which is nice, because I'm looking forward to seeing the full texturing and fog effects ^^
