Testing using a second character file to hold all of the monster images...

Do y’all like the solid round dot to identify points in the maze OR the arrow pad?

Do the arrows have a special meaning or is it just decoration?

Well, the DOT is used for the long wrap around hallway that wraps around the level’s maze... they are placed in front of doors or doorways that lead into the maze....
Anything at the bottom of the screen, and at its biggest, let’s you know it’s directly at your feet in front of you.... once the DOT is here, you can turn to face the door or doorway and enter the maze...
So, maybe it’s kinda both ... the regular dot follows more closely to intellivisions D&D Treasure of Tarmin game..... the arrows look fancy I think.... so I’m not sure which to use, and was curious if anyone had a version they liked :)

Of course, for this test.. no doors exists... but in the game there will be...
Also, since the outer hallway is so long, the passing of the dots give you a better sense of how far you are traveling... in the game there won’t be monsters in the outer hallway, just the dots...

Oh, and the little black corner markings are just part of the test... they will be removed for the game....
