Hello there! I am a causal but long-ish time player, and for once I decided to comment and give some feedback, if you'd have it. First off, I must say that I greatly enjoy Shattered Pixel Dungeon. It has been my long standing favorite mobile game, and I have been impressed by how much you have improved and added to the game over the years. Following that, based on the post, I am quite looking forward to the next update! For the most part, at least.

As most people are, I am excited for the vault quest and new enchantments and curses. I also quite like the look of the redesigns for the special and secret rooms, and feel that they give some more character to the dungeon without causing it to feel too cluttered since they are few and far between. However, also like most people here, I would be sad to to see the old sprites for potions, scrolls, stones, and seeds be replaced. I mean no discredit to the artists, the new sprites look just fine, but the old ones are a part of the identity of the game.

It may just be a sort of nostalgia, but thinking back to when I was younger and had first started playing, one of the core mechanics that I was interacting with the most each run was the scrolls and potions, collecting, identifying, and utilizing them with each new attempt. As things have been added more and more, the things that have stayed the same have been an anchor the game to what it is. I know it is only the textures, and of only a few specific sets of items, but I personally feel that those are one of the key identifiers of Shattered Pixel Dungeon. Of course, it is your game, and I'm sure we would get used to them if the new sprites were implemented. But, although the dungeon may change, it is the same player exploring it.

Thank you for reading, and I apologize if that was a bit much.

Well alright, fair enough. I can see your point, more or less. You've made quite honestly an amazing game thus far, so I trust whatever choices you make in the game's development. Thank you for the explaination!
