I'm very happy to see that you have decided to continue development after the Jam! This was one of the game that I really hoped to see more of.
The map markings do a lot to improve the experience, great addition! You can try increasing the Z-index of the X's to ensure that they always get drawn on top of the other map elements.
The portrait expressions and new animations are also neat, I'm starting to get more of an idea about how all of this will play out!
