This is for an indie roguelike/rpg/(kindgdom sim?) kind of affair. Torn between fast an simple, or pretty pixels but slower.

Right reminds me of Loop Hero and it worked in that, but purely aesthetically I say left.

Left feels right. Right feels creepy or alien

I prefer the right ones, except the bottom one, the left bottom with the lights is pretty cool.

The ones on the left hit me right in the nostalgia.

Thanks for the kind words! Man...that would be the ideal state of affairs if I could pull this off consistently.

Making games is hard. I've been blessed to stick around and help here and there. I wish you the best of luck!

And when you have a name and/or playable demo, feel free to message me, I'm always interested to see what people create!
