Oh and when you say the dark level doesn’t show well on your capture card, are you referring to the contrast between background and level, or something else? Would you be able to show a screenshot?

The darkness thing might entirely a problem with my vision and my hardware setup. On my main monitor I could sorta see the layout of the ground if I stood up rather than sat down, but on my other monitors, it was almost entirely dark except the specifically lit areas and the ?snow?.

A photo, which probably doesn't help much: two.png On the top, the path I came from going downwards is still kinda visible. On the monitor I was seeing the screen from, that was pretty much all black.


One of the viewers was able to see the snow, but said it looks solid: https://www.twitch.tv/annmwhite/clip/AnimatedAdventurousSwordMoreCowbell-St4bSII...

Basically, if the floor, spikes, switches, etc are meant to be visible, it's really really hard to see? Which I kinda assumed may have been the point.

Oh wow, yeah the way it looks in that capture card recording is way darker than intended. You're supposed to be able to just barely (but still reasonably) make out the silhouette of the level against the BG, but it looks like the BG shows up as basically just full black.

I'll figure something out to address that. Maybe a config menu setting that boosts the brightness of that BG specifically... maybe an outline around the level... will have to think about it.
