As of now, the skeletal framework (as I call it) of the dungeon is working the way I want it to be. For starters, the game will have this shroud effect on areas unexplored.

This is the First Floor of the First Dungeon. The colors will affect the vision of the player.

Another one is that lighting is given much more depth since there will be mechanics that will require the player to be in a particular side of light… if you know what I mean.
