Hi. :>

A few people now have mentioned the game's readability (or lack thereof) so thought I'd spend some time adding a whole bunch of new visual options. I also tweaked a few bits and bobs, such as the flickering colourful border around enemies has been replaced with a black shadow effect, the main walls now have a solid black background rather than being transparent, added greater control in the other visual options including making the background solid black, made some usability tweaks in the menus and tutorial, and tweaked a few levels.

List of new visual options.

Unsaturate Mode: This reduces the colour saturation and brightness of decorations, such as the back walls, plants, graves, etc. When the Fancy Backgrounds option is set to Static it also switches it to a less saturated and darker version.
Text Effects: This removes the flickering border effect around text and won't shift their colours too. It also stops the bobbing HUDs from moving (e.g. the time board at the top of the level).
Hue Shiftings: Usually walls and decorations slowly change colour, which this option stops. It also stops the alpha of the Ion Glass from slowly changing.
Dead Heads: Usually when you die a small floating skull is created and a big background face too, which this option can turn either one off.
Plantlife: Reduces or removes plant objects (grasses, top roots, trees, etc).
Door Wall: Reduces or removes the background walls and door arches.
Waterfalls: Reduces or removes the waterfalls and their effects.
Grave Chain: Reduces or removes graves and hanging chains.
Torch Bubble: Reduces or removes torches and bubble generators
Tentacles: Reduces or removes the tentacles from the side and bottom of walls.
Floaters: Reduces or removes the floating background animals (skulls, birds, bokeh particles).

Some comparison shots (it's a bit blurry due to Steam compressing them).



So if you're looking for something that's far more readable but retains a lot of the wordly decoration interest then I'd recommend the following settings (change pixel scale to your preferred size).



Enjoy. :>
