Tiles: they seem to be a rite of passage for any roguelike wishing to obtain some semblance of popularity. So yes, I've been thinking about it.
I'd want original ones though, and I'll need several hundred of them since the character set is so large. Several sizes too, preferably. And I'll need to find someone with artistic ability who is willing to draw them.
It might be too early to send out a call for tiles, but if there's lots of interest then that would encourage me to speed up the process.
Well, I decided to go ahead and throw the money down for the retail package in order to support the inclusion of excellent tiles to match this seemingly excellent effort somewhere down the line/put my money where my mouth is. In fact, should there be another "retail" release(do this...), I will gladly purchase game again with any additional new goodies that would exist at that time! Definitely go the extra mile and do a jewel case for the game disc though in this hopeful future run....sleeves make me nervous even though I already just now completed my order.
Also, yo! A semi-local! I'm down in Henry County, GA about 45-an hour south of Atlanta. I never would've guessed to come across a Roguelike presence around these parts, let along in GA period.
