Hmm that's an interesting idea, muting the background. I'm not going to redo all the art again now though, I already did that twice now haha. But I can see how it could benefit in bringing more attention toward the important parts. Currently I'm mulling over what game to make next, I'm considering making a series of games set in the same world as this one with new and reoccurring characters, this way I can reuse most stuff game->game with new twists to the base mechanics and only need some new art for the specific games. So more polished games for less effort xD
