Thank you anarbitrarymustache, your suggestion about the purple colour is really good.
Yes, the torch will be flickering and probably I will add some particles too if not too much disturbing. Actually that torch is double size than normal, just to show more the game. That would be probably a lantern size or a light spell size.
The future goal of the game (probably after the end of the jam), will be to create a cooperative game, where you have to choose carefully with your friend the equipment. In this specific case the warrior don't use a shield because he is alone and if he wants to see he need a light source, with two player one can carry the light so the warrior can actually use the shield. Some concept with the bow, you need two hand so if you have to carry a light source, you will have to use a different ranged weapon (maybe daggers as the goblins).
I am really glad that you enjoy it, I will pass your appreciation about the pixels to Lysa that is taking care about the art :-)
