Thanks for the review. I'm surprised by how much people like the graphics despite the fact that they are just free stock images mashed together. I've been having my doubts lately about this style since it feels like I'm doing the same thing as the generative AI cancer. I considered trying low-poly or a pre-rendered style, but time constraints gonna time constraints.

Photobashing is a real, valid style of creating art! You made something new from disparate parts, and, most importantly, it suits the game and enhances the atmosphere. If you were to expand on this, maybe you'd want to explore other styles, but you don't have to downplay the artistry that went into this. And personally, I would have been happier with unedited stock images over AI, so it's both appreciated and cool to see you working with what you had. Don't sell yourself short!
