@RageBurner is this one different? I guess the question is rather if this original one is better than the redux version?
Also wouldn't make sense to have these two merged in one thread only?

Update: I was just checking the first level of both and there are obvious differences. Considering these first impressions Redux seemed the better version.

No doubt, this is rather amateurish compared to Redux, but it was a request, so, yeah.

Box art for anyone who wants it <3

Thank you, that looks lovely!

Edit: Tell me if you made it, please. I'd love to credit you if so.
